TOOL supplier Frank Howard will host its free-to-attend annual show at the Chelmsford Racecourse from July 8-9.

Last year's event saw hundreds of people through the gates, while this year, organisers are hoping for a larger turnout.

Frank Howard said: ““Our annual show gives us the chance to really connect with our wider customer base and showcase the wide selection of products we offer.

"With even more big brands exhibiting at this year’s show, we’re hoping the event will provide people with the chance to get up close and personal to the latest tools and machinery. We look forward to welcoming attendees in July!”

Opening times are 9am – 5pm on Friday and 9am - 4pm on Saturday.

Expect to see top name brands including Bosch, Makita, Festool, Paslode, Snickers and Draper, with full hands-on demonstations.
