Islanders have the chance to get their Christmas shopping off to a great start whilst also raising funds for patients and their families this weekend at Earl Mountbatten’s Christmas Fayre (10am to 4pm, Sunday 27 November).
The Christmas Fayre, which is being held in the John Cheverton Centre, will feature a mix of festive stalls, including local and handmade gifts, stocking fillers, party clothes and fancy dress for all ages, KissyPuppy tombola and raffle.
Delicious Sunday lunch
There will also be live music and entertainment and a delicious two-course Sunday lunch for just £5.95 for adults and £4.95 for children (booking advised).
Visitors will also be able to tour our Chelsea Garden with our very own expert volunteer gardener. Entry and parking are free, although donations are very welcome.
Nigel Hartley, Chief Executive, said:
“Every year, we need to raise around £5m of the £7m it costs to provide services across the Isle of Wight.
“With the community’s incredible support, we are able to care for 600 Islanders every day in their own homes, as well as services from our 16-bed inpatient unit and John Cheverton Centre. Please do come and support this event, which is sure to get you in the festive mood!”
