Another very successful and happy day raising £1500! Wow! A huge thank you to everyone who supported it. And a massive thank you to the lovely team who helped put the event on, and of course all the stall holders without whom the event could not happen.
Cafe ladies, Raffle, Cakes, Games, Santa and his elf, Colin and his engines Gemini, Folk on the door, Stall holders, and all those behind the scene – Thank you!
Not forgetting a big thank to the trustees of the Community centre for getting the new toilets, kitchen and Sports hall ceiling replaced and repainted in time for the event. A massive costly project that took several weeks to complete.
Thornton, you are amazing. So many stall holders commented on how friendly and happy the fayre is, and how much they enjoy this craft fayre above others.
Thank you everyone. Thank you.

Just a reminder that it is the Christmas Craft Fayre tomorrow from 10 am until 2 pm at Thornton Community Centre, raising money for St Peter’s church.
With 22 stalls, lunches, games and Father Christmas arriving by Steam engine around 10.15 hopefully it will be another happy event.
Colin and his steam engine with Santa on board will leave from near the Bricklayers Arms around 9.30 am, travel to Highfields and arrive back at the community centre around 10.15 am. He will be in his grotto and open for visitors for most of the day.

Hope you are able to visit us.
Best wishes
The FOSP team
