🧸🪂 𝐓𝐄𝐃𝐃𝐘 𝐁𝐄𝐀𝐑 𝐏𝐀𝐑𝐀𝐂𝐇𝐔𝐓𝐄! 🪂🧸

One of our absolute favourite Fayre traditions is back… and it’s always a highlight of the day! 💛

Bring along your teddy (with their very own parachute!) and watch them take to the skies from the church tower — will yours float gently down or zoom off on an adventure? 😄

✨ Register your teddy in St Mary’s Church
✨ Just £1 per teddy
✨ Then gather in the churchyard for the big launch!
🧸 Top tip: maybe don’t bring your very favourite teddy… if the wind picks up, they might travel further than expected! 😅

This is such a joyful, slightly chaotic, and completely brilliant part of the Stamfordham Village Fayre — perfect for children (and adults who are young at heart!).

We can’t wait to see all your creative parachutes! 🎈

Come along and help with set up and take down for Stamfordham Village Fayre ...many hands make light work...

💛 Can you lend a hand at the Fayre?

We’d love a few extra pairs of hands to help with setting up and taking down at the Stamfordham Village Fayre. It’s all the practical bits — moving tables and chairs, putting up marquees, and getting the stalls ready for the day.

If you know you can help, please let James FG know 👍
Or if you suddenly find yourself free on the day — just come along and join in!

Many hands really do make light work, and it’s a lovely way to be part of the day before it all begins (and after it ends!). 💫
