A POPULAR village event is raring to return this year.
Plans are under way for the Twyford Scouts Donkey Derby, which is set to take place on King George V recreation field on Sunday, June 5, from 12.30pm.
There will be a range of entertainment and attractions at the event, which will be free to enter. These will include music from the Maidenhead Big Band, a fun fair, a bar and tea tent, plus the Scouts barbecue.
Sponsored donkey races will begin at 1.30pm.
And as it is happening on the Queen’s platinum jubilee weekend, everyone is invited to being their Big Jubilee Lunch picnic along to enjoy as well.
More than 3,000 people are expected to attend the volunteer-led event, which has not been held since 2019.
Organisers have invited village organisations who would like to participate by offering an activity or booking a space to get in contact. Advertising and race sponsorship opportunities are also available.
