“We are a non-profit organisation of unpaid volunteers we aim to break even and hopefully create a surplus.  Any surplus is given to local good causes. It is good to support such a worthy organisation as the Forest Holme Hospice
Forest Holme Hospice provides compassionate hospice care and support for adults with life-limiting illnesses in Dorset. They offer clinical care, symptom management, emotional support and wellbeing services to patients and families, helping them live as well as possible with dignity, comfort and quality of life.
 
The Swanage Folk Festival is self-funded and run solely by volunteers. If we manage to create a small surplus we donate it to local good causes. We rely on your support, please volunteer to help and / or donate.
