The event was large with a funfair and music stage. We were in the stalls area with other charities, information stalls and trade stalls: people had to walk through this are to get from the funfair to the stage so most people saw us.

The event was busy and there was a constant stream of people passing the stall.

On Sunday we added the light-bulb library to the display. This drew a lot of people into conversation about a range of issues including dimmer switches, LEDs, bulbs which are suitable for outside and where to go to get a larger range of bulbs. All the popular myths surfaced: that they're slow to light up, too expensive, there's a limited range available etc and we were able to talk people through these issues. Most people seemed to already have some low energy bubs in their home and were keen to find out how to replace more unusual bulbs. As a result of all this conversation we gave away around 100 light-bulb factsheets.

The giant board game was popular with families with small children - we set it up next to the stall. We also gave away about 50 of the children's factsheets to families.
