The tractor run is an integral part of the Somerford Show, raising many thousands of pounds for the Wiltshire Air Ambulance over the years it has run. 2022 saw another challenging year , this time due to the extremely hot weather, however, with plenty of water and a few breaks for the machinery, it was still a tremendous success with many old and restored and still working tractors making the journey.

“We had a brilliant turn out this year, under challenging conditions for the tractors and drivers alike! It was great to see so many people taking part and supporting, despite the rules and regulations we had in place to keep everyone safe. With only a few showers around and a couple of breakdowns, we had a great day all round and managed to raise over £1800.

Hopefully next year we can return to a more traditional format, but I wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who took part and supported the run this year. It meant we carried on the important job of raising money for Wiltshire Air Ambulance, and of course having some fun!” (George Candy)

This years event takes place on Sunday the 4th June, starting from the Olivemead. Everyone needs to be there for 09:00, with us aiming to head off about 09:20.
