Bacon:
Jonathan Bacon, Chair of St Helens Sports and Carnival Society said,
“We were very pleased to have such a strong level of interest in the Carnival this year, which follows on from the success of St Helens and their Float in the parades around the Island last year.
“We look forward to another good season.
“As usual the theme for our Float will remain a secret until the first Carnival Parade, which takes place in Newport on Saturday 22nd July.”
