The rain didn’t dampen spirits at Northowram Gala at the weekend as the community gathered for a fun day out.

There was something for everyone to enjoy including an inflatable zone, stalls, hair braiding, music and more.

The weather did mean that some of the stall holders and ride providers felt they were unable to attend but organisers thanked the visitors, dance/theatre groups and stall holders that attended.

This was the second year for Northowram Gala and organisers have their sights on returning next year.
