We'd love any donations for our two Christmas fundraising events -

Parish Christmas Fair - Sat 14th November
Christmas Tree Festival - Sat 5th December

We can create raffle hampers from donated festive foods
We can re-sell unused gifts you might have at home or you might want to purchase a few new items for our events
We can create tombolas from almost anything!
Any Christmas decorations you no longer want - we can put to good use on a Christmas stall.
Any new/ unused items can also become raffle prizes
Bottles can be used on tombolas/ raffle prizes

Please donate anything you might have and bring items into either church over the next few weeks.

Thanks you in advance for anything you can donate and do put the dates in your diary and join us at our Christmas fundraising events.
