Book your stall for charity village fete and help Chelsea’s wishes come true

Thanks to Amy Creed for sharing. Ed


We’re organising a charity village fete at Godshill cricket pitch on Wednesday 12th August 10am-4pm.

We have 50 pitches available at £20 each.

Unfortunately due to the size of the event we’re unable to provide tables, however there will be an area for parking directly behind your stall and this is a brilliant opportunity, due to it being one of the busiest days in our village in peak tourist season.

All money raised is going to Chelsea’s Wishes. The only thing we ask of stall holders is that they have their own individual insurance to cover them.

We’ll allocate each stall holder an equal sized pitch in a specific area depending on the type of stall.

Contact Amy Creed or Yasmin Nigh through Facebook if you are interested.

Chelsea’s story
Chelsea was born eleven weeks early on 25/02/2012 weighing a tiny 2lbs12oz. When Chelsea was born she suffered two bilateral grade four IVH (bleeds on her brain), this has resulted in Chelsea having extensive brain damage which has shown on her MRI.

Because of these complications they have affected Chelsea in lots of ways: She is not growing properly due to being unable to eat and drink orally, she also has evolving four limb Cerebral Palsy, epilepsy and last of all her sight is very poor due to the brain damage.

Chelsea’s Wishes
Because of all the above Chelsea’s family decided to set up Chelsea’s Wishes to raise funds for a sensory nursery to help improve her quality of life.

They know she reacts to lights and want to work on this to increase her vision and provide a safe stimulating environment; they also want to buy other equipment that can suit her size to help her in other areas.
