MUMS who rescued Cowling Gala have hailed it as the "best gala for years".
Saturday’s organised by a new committee of five working mums following the disbandment of the previous committees.
Sally Horner, one of the women, said Saturday’s event was a huge success She said: “Even a torrential downpour was not enough to deter people. It was enjoyed and supported by the whole village.”
Sally believed many people went along because of ITV’s Calendar News broadcast a report the previous evening.
