CLA Game Fair director Andrew Crawford has called on rural Britain to turn out in force to support this year’s show season after the cancellation of last year’s event.
Speaking at the launch of the CLA Game Fair 2013, which takes place at Ragley Hall, Warwickshire from 19-21 July, he said: “Outdoor events, attended by millions of people each year, are the lifeblood of the rural economy and a shop window for thousands of small businesses who desperately need help.
“We are calling for a massive show of support for the organisers, exhibitors and traders at all of this year’s outdoor shows to help give the countryside a significant boost.”
