🙏 Can you spare just 30 minutes?

Our amazing volunteers make the Summer Fete possible, but even superheroes need a break!

We're looking for a few extra people to join our volunteer relief team on Friday.

What does that involve?

➡️ Rotating around the volunteers to enable them to do things like
➡️ Grab a drink
➡️ A chance to find some shade and top up the suncream
➡️ Letting a volunteer pop to the loo without worrying about leaving a stall unattended

Just 30 minutes of your time could make a huge difference to someone who's been helping all afternoon.

Why not add yourself to the list and be a fete hero!

📣 Summer Fete Practical Information

To help everyone have a fantastic afternoon, here are a few useful reminders ahead of Friday:

🧦 Socks are required for the inflatables. Please remember to bring a pair, even if the weather is warm.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Children remain the responsibility of their parent/carer throughout the event. This is not a drop-off event and all children must be accompanied by an adult.

💳 Many stalls will accept tokens purchased on site, while some external stallholders may prefer cash or card payments.

☀️ The weather is looking promising, so don't forget sun cream, hats and water bottles if needed.

We're looking forward to seeing everyone for an afternoon packed with family fun!
