Free tickets for the Leeds Festival anyone? Read more from the Mean Fiddler team......

"As you know, we have the Tent Recycling project going on at Leeds Festival and we would like to ensure we collect as many available tents and other re-usable items as possible.

To this end, we have decided to expand our collection days to include Tuesday 28th, Wednesday 29th and Thursday 30th. However we want to appeal to your sons and daughters and their friends, if they are after a free ticket to the 2008 Leeds Festival!!!

Could you please spread the word and let those fit young things know that there are Leeds Festival 2008 tickets for the taking, if they give us 8 hours a day on Tuesday 28^th, Wednesday 29^th and Thursday 30^th August, collecting tents and other items here at the festival site. (This is the same number of hours all festival stewards do in return for their ticket, except mostly their hours are during the festival, so they end up missing out on bands!)

The collected items won’t be for taking back to scouts however, we will send them onto our charity Global Hand. We will also be collecting unopened food and pots and pans and arranging for these to go to charities locally.

Please have the interested people email Emily Kay on: ekay@meanfiddler.co.uk with the subject line as "Recycling Project - Leeds 2008 Tickets"
