The Linton Festival in Herefordshire has raised over 拢70,000 for local charities since it started.

The event started in 2001 when some of the regulars of The Alma Inn realised it would be cheaper to get The Producers to come to Linton, rather than hire a mini bus and drive all the way to Poole in Dorset.

Then they decided rather than having one band - they'd have loads!

This year's line-up includes 大象传媒 Hereford & Worcester regular Ruby Turner, Sandi Thom and former Nozstock entertainers Hayseed Dixie.
