Time to drum up excitement for the 2023 Blacon Festival

Rock out this summer at Blacon’s biggest community celebration.

The Blacon Festival, organised by local social enterprise Avenue Services, will be taking place at Queen Elizabeth Fields on Blacon Avenue from 1-5pm on Saturday 1 July.

Every business across every industry will require working capital, but for the recruitment industry in particular, which will often pay candidates on a weekly basis but invoice clients monthly, finance is critical to maintaining cash flow month-round.

Specialising in invoice finance for the recruitment industry, Zodeq is no stranger to a wide range of recruitment fields, each bringing their own challenges.

To do this, more often than not, they will require the right finance to ensure adequate working capital month in, month out and that is precisely what Zodeq is here to do. Having supported many healthcare recruiters in the past few years to overcome challenges and thrive under difficult economic circumstances, we are encouraging healthcare recruiters to speak to our team and find out how we can support them moving forward.”

If you would like to learn more about how Zodeq supports clients with their finance and back office support needs, please don’t hesitate to get in touchpaul@zodeq.com.

The annual event is now in its 26th year and is recognised as Chester’s largest community-led festival, attracting thousands of visitors each year. This year’s event will have everyone jamming out to the sounds of summer with a music festival theme.

Chester MP Samantha Dixon will officially open the festival at 1pm, kicking off a day packed full of fun and entertainment for all ages including stalls, music, games, dancing and much more.

Paul Knight, Head of Avenue Services, said: “The Blacon Festival is always a highlight in our calendar and I’m delighted that we have another fantastic event lined up this year for our community.”

If you are interested in having a stall at the festival, please contact Sandra Hewitt atsandra.hewitt@sanctuary.co.uk. Avenue Services, which is a not-for-profit organisation, is a joint venture between Sanctuary and Cheshire West and Chester Council.
