First Christmas Fair for St Wilfrid’s Hospice

Thursday, 27 November 2025 13:27

The festive spirit is arriving at St Wilfrid's Hospice this Saturday (29th November) at its first ever Christmas Fair.

Taking place between 11am and 4pm, the public areas of the hospice will be brimming with market stalls offering crafts such as pottery painting and wreath making, sweet treats, handmade Christmas goods and much more.

Parking at the hospice is limited, but plenty is available nearby, including in Summerdown School's car park next door to the hospice. Entry is by donation.

Community Fundraiser, Kayleigh Tippett, said: “We're so excited to host our first Christmas Fair and we hope there's something to appeal to all ages. Thank you to Summerdown School for the loan of their car park and Recruitment South East for sponsoring the event. The money raised will help towards hospice care.”
