Does anyone know a company who could do fabric wristbands, as pictured and ideally from recycled material, who doesn't want £2.50+ per wristband? We need 100 each of two different colours (Weekend Passes & Artists/Crew).
It's finally happening! :)

An outstanding amount raised by Emma Louise Dance Club and everyone who took part in Dance the Distance at the McMillan Hall on 2nd June 2019! Superb.
Understandably, the closing concert at this year's festival - a unique and intimate opportunity to catch the legendary Dougie MacLean live in concert - is close to selling out. Please don't leave it too late to book your tickets. https://event.bookitbee.com/…/dougie-ma clean-live-at-tradfe…
Brilliant effort by Emma Louise Dance Club and everyone involved at Sunday's Dance the Distance event, raising funds for The Vault Arts Centre.
