Just as a reminder that due to rain forecast for Tomorrow Sat 29 August at Callow Hill DY14 9DA our final car boot of the year is cancelled. We have had 5 good sales this summer blessed with good weather and its a shame we have had to cancel this one but the weather has beaten us this time! Thanks to all our volunteers who have worked hard to make these boots happen and to all of you that have supported our charity this year. Look forward to seeing you all next year. 2027 dates will be posted on here when known in the new year.

A blast from the past!!! 20 years ago!! The opening of Far Forest Pavilion in 2006 originally posted on the On the Forest page by Vivienne Broadway. A few familiar faces Raymond Attwood and David Bell who are still society trustees today. Not sure of all the faces from the committee at that time though.
