In this second episode of ChardCast we join children from Manor Court Community Primary School talking about their experience of performing in Chard Carnival. There’s also a fascinating and emotional insight into carnival over the years from Steve Dawe (a ‘carnivalite’ of 30 years), Jason Baker (Chairman of Chard Carnival Committee), Claire Brown (a member of Chard Carnival Committee for ten years) and Doreen Toms (a life member of Chard Carnival Committee for 50 years).
