Fundraising
The Playgroup also arranges social events for parents and
carers and welcomes any parental involvement. There is involvement
in other aspects of village life such as the carnival during
the summer and entering exhibits for the garden shows. We
hold coffee mornings and summer and winter fayres. We also
make several trips during the year, such as to the beach,
fire station and fun parks. We also work closely with the
village school.
As we are a charity we rely heavily on extra money generated
by our fundraising activities. We are always interested in
good quality bric-a-brac for these events and volunteers are
always welcomed to help out with our activities.
If you would like to help raise money for our playgroup or
indeed have any items of interest we may sell at a forth-coming
event please email
us.
