MESSAGE FROM YORKSHIRE MAG EVENTS AND RALLIES
*** IT IS WITH THE GREATEST OF REGRETS THAT WE HAVE TO INFORM YOU THAT FARMYARD PARTY 2020 IS CANCELLED FOR REASONS BEYOND OUR CONTROL ***
Late this afternoon (Monday 7th Sept) we received a telephone call from Ryedale District Council Licencing Dept. informing us that due to the recent increase in the R (infection) rate in the Ryedale area, their SAG (Safety Advisory Group) in conjunction with the Director of Public Health for North Yorkshire, have regrettably withdrawn support for this year’s Farmyard Party. Whilst they are only there in an advisory role we fully respect their decision and it would be wholly irresponsible of us to proceed without their full support. As a result of this decision our Event Liability Insurance is no longer valid which automatically puts an immediate halt to the event.
We realise this will come as a huge disappointment to many of you, it certainly has to us, but our hands are tied, we need to preserve the longer-term future of our events and we hope that you support us in this decision, and will continue to support us in the years to come.
A huge thanks again from all of us and we look forward to seeing you in a field in 2021, till then stay safe.
Please allow us a few days to respond to any questions, as we have a lot of traders, caterers, bands, marshals etc. to communicate with in the meantime.
We will make a full statement over the next few days when the written notification has come through from Ryedale District Council.
