The Hereford May Fair and Leominster Town fair contract is due for renewal in 2019.

The fairs, which both run in May, have been a feature in the centre of Hereford and Leominster for hundreds of years.

It’s important that the views of people in Hereford and Leominster are taken on board before the contract, which lasts for seven years is considered for award once again.

Councillor David Harlow, cabinet member economy and corporate services said:

“We know that the fair is popular with many residents and we are proud of the long history the county has with the fairs.

But we do need to understand better the views of residents, shoppers, businesses and retailers before we consider awarding the contract for the next seven years.”

The council has produced a short survey in order to gain the views of residents which can be found at https://www.herefordshire.gov.uk/FairSurvey
