The Harry Prigg Absent Friends Trophy

Harry was a long standing member, friend and Trustee of Llantrisant Folk Club. Harry died in July 1997.

Phil Downing suggest we make this award as a tribute to his memory. Since then we have all lost friends dear to us both in the Folk world and more privately.

We feel sure that Harry would have agreed with the small change to the trophy's title to embrace all our "Absent Friends".

During the Easter Weekend a small panel of judges choose the performance which stands out above the others as being the most memorable.

This Annual Challenge Trophy, a wooden, hand crafted, miniature ships wheel was created by Phil Downing .
