The successful groups included Trefy Youth Sports, Knighton’s Youth Project, Knighton Town Silver Band Training Group, Friends of Knighton School, Knighton Young Farmers Club and 1st Knighton Scout Group.

The groups who received funding were presented by Knighton Show and Carnival Chairman Paul Davies Chair and Show President Sarah Griffiths.

This funding is made possible through the generosity of every person who attends and supports the show and carnival’s events throughout the year.

This year's Knighton Show and Carnival will be held on Saturday, August 23.
