YEADON residents are being asked to support their local carnival. More helping hands are needed, including a new chairman and plenty of other volunteers to prepare this summer's event and take part in festivities on the day. As well as a chairman, the committee also requires an entertainment co-ordinator and publicity officer. They have also appealed for new ideas for the content of the event and how to make it more profitable. A committee meeting was being held this week to discuss a number of issues.
