As Halloween festivities take place this evening, including our town event, Chard Town Council would like to remind residents and visitors to celebrate safely, responsibly, and with respect for others.

Please follow the directions of Chard Town Team stewards and organisers who dedicate their time to ensure the safety and enjoyment of all attendees.

Respect personal space and behave courteously towards others throughout the evening.

Avon and Somerset Police have issued guidance on staying safe https://www.avonandsomerset.police.uk/…/stay-safe-this…/

Chard Town Council thanks everyone for their cooperation and wishes all residents and visitors an enjoyable and safe Halloween.
