Helping Herts and Standon Calling Festival come together to support local charities 

Helping Herts is teaming up with one of the biggest and most iconic music festivals in Hertfordshire to raise funds for children and young people in Herts.

Working with its charity partners, Helping Herts has created a series of fun family events and workshops throughout the festival from July 20 to July 23.

With activities split across 'calm' and 'active' zones, there's plenty to entertain the little ones from build a bear, face painting, seed planting, glitter tattoos, colouring and messy play, lip reading challenges and willow heart weaving.

Gordon Morrison, founder of Helping Herts, said: "We're thrilled to be partnering with Standon Calling for this spectacular festival in Hertfordshire. 

"We're really excited to be working with our charity partners to provide a new and exciting space for visitors to take part in lots of fun activities and raise money and awareness for important causes.

"If you're visiting the festival this year, please do pop along and see us at our stand in the Helping Herts Zone."

Helping Herts is the official charity for Stort Valley Rotary Club, bringing together remarkable local charities, united by a common goal: to improve the lives of our children and young people.

By supporting Helping Herts you can become a catalyst for transformation and a beacon of hope for countless young lives across the county.

All the activities are low cost, with profits going to the campaign. Donations can also be made on site via a QR code.
