“Burntwood Town Council is delighted once again to provide a free Family Wakes event this Saturday 20th July from 12pm to 4pm. We hope the weather will be favourable, but even if it is not, the event will still proceed with many exciting things for people of all ages to be involved in, so please come along and participate and really enjoy a super family Saturday. The Burntwood Wakes would not be possible without the support of our sponsors so thank you to the Noel Sweeney Foundation, London Cambridge Properties, Lichfield District Council and the We Love Lichfield Fund”.
