Two popular television actresses have got behind the Welshpool 1940s Weekend to be held from September 30 to October 2.
Louise Jameson from Eastenders (Mrs Dimarco) and Allo Allo and I'm a Celebrity star Vicki Michelle (pictured) posed with a promotional poster advertising the event.
Both Ms Jameson and Ms Michelle were pleased to lend their support to what promises to be not only a community event but also because of the educational aspect that it offers visitors.
The event will take place in and around Welshpool Town Centre when individuals, charities and voluntary groups are invited to discuss how they can be involved.
Tickets for a 1940s Variety Show on the Friday and a Blitz Ball on the Saturday night are now on sale and available from The Hafren Box Office. Bookings are also being taken for a 1940s themed dinner at the Baytree Tearooms on the Friday evening.
A 100 Club has been set up with everyone invited to take part. Bookings are now being taken for a fundraising Craft Fair in Welshpool Town Hall on Saturday, June 18.
Details can be found on the event’s Facebook page @ welshpoolfortiesweekend which is regularly updated as attractions are confirmed.
