Enjoy an afternoon of family fun at our annual Summer Fayre!
Summer Fayre
Sunday 13th July, 12pm – 3pm
Our Summer Fayre returns for 2025, taking place in the Hospice and outside in our beautiful gardens.
Come and join us for a family-friendly afternoon of fun that’s jam packed with exciting activities!
We have yet to announce our 2025 Summer Fayre theme but at our 2024 carnival themed Summer Fayre, families could try their luck at hook-a-duck or test their throwing skills on the tin-can alley or the coconut shy. Children could ride the helter-skelter, have a jump on the bouncy castle and take part in face painting and craft activities such as balloon modelling. There was also live music and dance performances from local acts, toy, craft, jewellery and food stalls to peruse, raffles, a tombola, refreshments, a fire engine, an ice cream van and so much more!
Watch this space for our 2025 theme and confirmed activities!
Loveable Hospice Mascot, Hartley will be in attendance at our Summer Fayre, he’s looking forward to welcoming the public into his gardens, joining in with the paw-some activities and getting an ice cream treat. You can take it easy, indulge in a brew or Hospice gin cocktail, enjoy a slice of cake and take a look at the stalls on offer, or you can take part in the activities!
It promises to be a great start to the Summer holidays, watch this space for more additions to the day!
Free entry (but a suggested donation of £1 per person is very welcome).
