FCS Christmas Fayre
We are so excited to be returning with Ferndown Christmas Fayre! Get festive in aid of Ferndown Community Support’s ‘Mission Santa Sacks’, and Community Larder & Food Bank+! We’re opening up Ferndown Day Centre to bring you a day of all things Christmas. Join us for craft and games stalls, hot drinks, cider, homemade cake, hot dogs, raffle, storytime, face painting, plus much more. We cant wait to see you!
Featuring:
Storytelling sessions
Our clever chief Elf has written a special illustrated story for our visitors – she wasnt going to be outdone by Santa in his grotto! Come and hear a specially crafted festive tale, complete with magic, fun and interactive storytelling. The magic begins with the tales of Christmas!
Food & drink
No visit would be complete without a chance to refresh the palette with some sumptuous homemade cake, washed down with lashings of tea, coffee or, even better HOT CHOCOLATE with marshmallows and cream, or a sneaky Baileys!
Hot dogs and turkey and cranberry toasties will surely get you in the mood for Christmas too.
Savory tooth, sweet tooth, or little teeth – there’s something for all!
Craft Stalls
with 15 craft stalls there’s plenty of variety for everyone to enjoy. We have crafters selling wax melts, crystals, jewellery and homewares, Bodyshop, Christmas decorations, wood items, and wreaths to name a few!
Miss Honey’s Guinea Pigs
Miss honey’s Guinea Pig rescue will be returning with a few of their delightful piggies to see and handle. Find out all about their work and how to care for guinea pigs yourself.
Games stalls
No Fayre would be complete without a few games stalls to tempt young and old, and inspire a bit of old fashioned nostalgia! We even give you a prize just for having a go! Come and try your hand at Lucky Dip, teddy tombola, tombola, water or wine and more.
Crafting fun for kids
Our craft room will keep little ones busy making festive crafts. With a selection of crafts to make its a perfect warming and creative activity for all.
Superb raffle!
Our raffles contain some of the best curated prizes (in our humble opinion!). We are curating a wonderful selection from local businesses, all of whom support us and whom we want to support. Come down on the day to buy your strips and be in with a chance of winning. Draw will take place at 4pm.
Thank you so much to all our raffle donors past and present, and if you’d like to donate a raffle prize please get in touch here.
About ‘Mission Santa Sacks’
Each year since FCS began, we have delivered over 100 Santa Sacks of wrapped gifts and essentials to children and young people in the local area who are struggling. Working with the local schools, social services and our own food bank, we distribute a gift sack of wrapped gifts and essentials to bring a bit of Christmas magic and joy. All organised and wrapped by volunteers, it’s no mean feat! We love doing it, it is much needed, and your support at this Fayre will help us deliver again this year. Find out more here, or you can also donate directly here:
Face painting
Get your festive face on with our professional face painter and glitter tattoo artists! Become a snowman, elf, or princess, whatever you choose!
