Can you help at our Winter Crafternoon on 3rd December?

We're trying something different for our Christmas event this year - look out for our Winter Crafternoon on 3 December. There are so many Christmas Fairs and shopping opportunities at this time of year that we feel we'd like to offer something different. A chance to just be, make something, have a cuppa and chat to your neighbours, maybe learn a new skill... oh and eat cake (there's always cake). If you'd like to help out on the day, get in touch, we'd love to hear from you!
