CARNIVAL SPONSORSHIP 2018
We were delighted to welcome our 2018 Carnival cup sponsors to the Carnival Arms to see their cups in action! Thanks to the team at Goadsby and our fabulous bar volunteers who have been rushed off their feet all week.
We are very pleased that all our visitors have loved our reusable cups this year, helping us make a huge reduction in waste. Our recyclable and reusable cups have become so popular we thought it would be a fun idea to see how far our cups can travel.
So as a competition if you are going on holiday take a cup (with our sponsor's Goadsby name on and the Carnival Logo) with you or have family or friends around the world send them a cup get of a photo of it wherever you are and send it to us and we will post your pictures on our Swanage Carnival website and social media sites.
