Hey everyone!

Hazel Grove Carnival is back on Saturday 18th July at Torkington Park, and we’ve got an absolute cracker of a day lined up for you.

The committee has worked incredibly hard this year to make sure many of our main attractions don't cost a penny to enjoy, keeping it a brilliant, affordable day out for everyone.

Plus, it is completely FREE ENTRY to get onto the park!

​Here is a quick look at what’s on:

​Ferretworld Roadshow 🏎️ – Watch the live races through the tunnels and meet the ferrets!

​Thomas Longton’s Sheepdog Demo 🦆 – Incredible to watch, especially when the ducks start misbehaving!

​The Strawberry Radio Stage 🎵 – Live music and entertainment all day long.

​Mobile Farm 🐐 – Bring the kids to meet the goats, sheep, chickens, and rabbits.

​Poynton Brass Band 🎺 – Proper local soundtrack for the afternoon.

​The Funfair 🎡 – All your favourite rides and games will be there for all ages! (Paid attraction)

​The Dog Show 🐶 – Bring your own pooch! Registration runs 10.30am–2.30pm, with judging at 3pm.

​Climbing Wall 🧱 – Challenge yourself and get a view of the park!

​Food, Drink & Shopping 🍔 – We've got a global Food Court, licensed bars, the Scouts refreshments marquee, and tons of local trade and community stalls to explore.

Can you help?
We're getting really short of volunteers to help run the Carnival this year!
If you can give up a couple of hours a month, or just help out on the day (You would need to attend a couple of meetings before to understand what's what) we'd love to see you.
We're all unpaid volunteers and it's great to see the community come together - we think the Carnival is the probably the biggest event in Hazel Grove and one of the largest community events in Stockport - it's free entry, and loads of free events, so it's amazing to watch people enjoy it!

Jobs on the day are helping set up, help get the trade and food areas ready, general assistance and cleaning up at the end of the day.
If you can help us before that, we need some help drumming up sponsorship etc.

Get in touch via message here or email us at [email protected]!!

Hello all!

We're well into organising the carnival big fun day on 18th July on Torkington Park.

We've got loads of lovely food stalls, but we're missing a good quality coffee vendor - anyone got any leads?

This year we've got loads on, we hope to have a full Torkie park!

See you soon!

🥷 TONIGHT’S MISSION 🥷

Tonight, we’re stepping in quietly for a family who’ve had their world turned upside down.

https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/michael-carroll-4?utm_medium=CF&utm_source=CL

Target £30,000 currently at £15,355 from 453 supporters.

This is one of those moments where life changes fast - the kind that leaves people trying to hold everything together while facing challenges they never saw coming. The basics become harder. The future feels uncertain. And the pressure builds quickly.

This mission isn’t about fixing everything.
It’s about creating breathing space.

It’s about easing the immediate strain, giving a family time, options, and the reassurance that they’re not facing this alone.

That’s what we do.

No judgement.
No questions.
No conditions.

Just people showing up, each giving a little, so one family can get through a very difficult chapter with a bit more stability and support.

If you can donate, donate.
If you can’t, share.
Both matter.

No noise.
No spotlight.
Just quiet kindness.

That’s C H A R I T Y N I N J A.

Mission live.
You saw nothing. 🥷
