The visit was arranged to celebrate the historic trading and cultural links between South Wales and minehead and it is hoped will become an annual event. The Mayor took part in an exchange of hampers at Barry, South Wales on board the tall ship 'The Irene'. Hampers of local produce were exchanged by young people of West Somerset and Barry in the hope that exchange visits would become a permanent event in the future. This was part of the first Minehead Harbour Festival held that weekend and the Mayor said that she would personally like to thank Steven Hooper the Visioning Manager for a very well organised event. The Hamper was raffled at the Festival on the Saturday with monies going to The Hope Centre in Minehead. Your comment will be posted after it is approved.
