Now the target is £10,000, and with last year’s sponsors Neil and Jackie Forsyth, of Staynorthumbria, again offering their support, it could be within reach.
Bamburgh-based company WebAuthors is also helping out, donating and creating a festival website at www.bfest.org.uk
And Fantasy Prints, based in Berwick, will be printing t-shirts at the event, with 50 per cent of sales going to HospiceCare.
