Letters to editor:- "Help us find our stolen charity event banners for the Formby Festival"

"WITH just days to go to the festival, between the hours of 9.00am and 12 noon, on Friday, 10 July 2015, all banners and advertising for the Formby Festival have been removed / stolen, that advertises the event. These ruthless people have now taken funds directly from 'Help For Heroes', as all profits made go to this good cause. As these banners / posters have cost us over £700 to have printed and we will now have to replace them for next year, thus taking funds away from Help for Heroes. Whoever has taken the banners has not contacted us either to ask that we take them down or indeed to say they have them and return them to us. The people they have hurt most is Help for Heroes as this now means less funds will go to the very good cause. It is amazing that anyone would remove them and not even return them or even ask us to remove them is they were offending in any way. This event brings people into Sefton and hopefully brings them back throughout the year. We are supposed to be a tourist destination and encourage tourists. We cannot see a problem in advertising a local event once a year. In fact on checking our figures last year our 3 banners cost £347.00 and the year before £428 and this year £165, as if we utilize the ones from previous years we don't have to spend as much on the banners. Next year we hoped not to spend any money on banners as we had now purchased 10 banners. We also hoped to reuse all the poster boards and just change the date and we had spend over £150 on the poster and over £50 on the boards etc." Maria - Formby Festival.
