There are lots of activities for children including fairground and donkey rides, hook a duck, lucky dip and creative projects themed around the Hospice Hens.

There will also be a fancy dress competition for children and prizes will be awarded for the best costumes.

There will also be live music and the opportunity to meet and get pictures with Hospice mascot Alice Mouse as well as guest appearances from Superman and Snow White.

Delicious food and drink will be available from the popular new Hospice Bistro, which will be open throughout the event.

The Hospice’s Community Fundraiser, Janice Forbes said “We are excited about our first Summer Fayre and our gardens are the perfect place for a family event. Hopefully, the nice weather will continue and give us a lovely sunny day with lots of fun for everyone. On a serious note though, this event is to raise money to help provide care for Hospice patients and we really appreciate the support of everyone who has been involved so far. We’re looking forward to seeing everyone on the day and hoping to make this an annual event for our local communities.”
