We held our Annual Street Fair on Saturday 3rd of September.

In spite of the wet weather there was a good turnout on the day. We had a variety of stalls on the village green offering advice, information, freebies and raffles. In the shelter of the FCDT building we had face painting and kids crafts with a bouncy castle, refreshments and further stalls available at St Andrews Church Hall.

Thanks to everyone who braved the soggy conditions to attend and support the event!
