Brinsley Carnival

The Brinsley Carnival is held every year, it was a great opportunity for us to meet our new community, having moved into the area only a year ago.

As well as meeting many people, we managed to raise some much needed funds. We were though very disappointed to find that goldfish were being given away in plastic bags to very young children, by one of the events at the fair.

This is irresponsible, cruel and contrary to the Animal Protection Act.
