We are so excited that Derek and Carole from Romany Caravans are going to bring their amazing wagons along to Purbeck Valley Folk Festival this August as part of our stand to help inspire a handwritten letter revival. We were looking for a WOW factor and now we have TWO!

The smaller one will be available to write letters or postcards in and the larger one will be there for people to have a look around and be amazed. The story behind them is wonderful. Come and talk to the owners to hear their amazing tales. Suggs from Madness has even slept in one of them.

We’re hoping that some of the bands and artists might like to pop by to write a letter during the festival to help spread the word about the beauty of handwritten letters, so we are delighted that Old Man Luedecke has already said he would. We can’t wait to meet him.

Really hope you can join us!
