We would like to wish Clare IJ a blessed day when she plays mas on Monday at Leeds carnival in hopes to raise funds that can be used towards our anticipated Huddersfield Carnival 2027!

Clare is normally a masquerader with Callaloo Carnival Arts UK but is supporting Phoenix Mas Band Huddersfield as they complete their last lap of their carnival tour.

Clare hopes to raise funds to support the Legacy Steel Band to get on the road for carnival - she has a leadership role with this group who fall under our HACCT umbrella.

Clare has an impressive catalogue in terms of her support and fundraising efforts with Huddersfield carnival and has volunteered heavily in some of the previous carnivals we have held in more recent times, including our “Vibe Alive” event. Clare continues to be a Carnival committee member and is very passionate about supporting all efforts to ensure Huddersfield gets back on the road!

To donate follow the links below in Clare’s post.

Good luck Clare , we respect, applaud and appreciate your continued efforts

Help Clare Ibberson-John raise money to support Hudderfield African Caribbean Cultural Trust

HACCT is delighted to announce that we are well on our way to reaching our fundraising target for Huddersfield Carnival 2027!

Thanks to the hard work and dedication of our trustees, we have successfully secured £100,000 of funding from Arts Council England. This is a huge milestone, but we still need to raise the final £50,000 to make Carnival 2027 a reality.

Our trustees are actively applying for additional funding opportunities, and alongside this we will be launching a range of fundraising initiatives. We will be sharing updates, events and campaigns across our social media channels, so please:

Follow us, Share our posts & Support our fundraising efforts where you can.

Huddersfield Carnival is a much-loved Caribbean cultural celebration that belongs to the whole community. To get this spectacular event back on the road, we need your support.

If you would like to fundraise on our behalf, sponsor the event, or have a great fundraising idea, we'd love to hear from you.

Together, let's bring Huddersfield Carnival 2027 back bigger and better than ever!
