SPONSORS

Hudgell Solicitors supported Hull’s first ever children’s literature festival during our City of Culture Year and it’s fantastic that The Big Malarkey Festival will continue in 2018 and hopefully into the future.

Many of our staff attended last year’s event with their children and we heard tremendous feedback from them of the amazing time they’d had and how inspirational the event had been, both adults and children.  We’re delighted to be able to support The Big Malarkey 2018 which we believe is a wonderful addition to the annual cultural calendar.

KCOM has been at the heart of Hull and East Yorkshire for more than a hundred years. Our story started back in 1904 when a quirk of history gave Hull its own phone company.

We love being local. That’s why, as well as rolling out Lightstream full fibre broadband and delivering cutting edge IT services to businesses across Hull and East Yorkshire, we’re committed to supporting local culture.

We were a principal partner of Hull UK City of Culture 2017 and are delighted to be a part of The Big Malarkey Festival and all its amazing literary events in 2018.

We work a lot in schools as a facilities management company, we see the work that goes in from the teaching community into the children and we just want to play our part in the development of children who are going to be the potential next employees and customers for us.

We get involved with a lot of reading projects. It’s a vital life skill that sometimes these days can get missed.

Events like The Big Malarkey Festival can spark that excitement to read. I love reading myself and I have two small children who read most nights and I see their excitement with that.
