AFTER running the Silsden car boot sales successfully for the last 23 years, we have decided to retire and will no longer be involved.

We have both really enjoyed our time organising the sales, but the time has come to move on and let a new generation take over.

We're pleased to be able to say that with immediate effect, Zoey Marshall and Jonathan Parkinson are taking on the role. They have already submitted dates for approval for 2020 and as soon as formal permission has been given, they will be arranging advertising etc.

We are sure that Silsden car boot sales will continue to be as successful as ever under the new 'ownership'.

Finally, we would like to thank all the sellers and buyers for their loyalty and attendance, and we trust that you will give Zoey and Jonathan the great support you've always afforded us.

SUE AND DAVID BLAGDEN

Silsden
