We can't wait for 4th December!
Want to know why?
Okay, we'll tell you!
On 4th December, we will be holding a Christmas Fayre at the United Reformed Church in Lowestoft!
In case you were wondering, the United Reformed Church is the one on London Road North, next to The Volunteer pub, opposite Poundstretchers in Lowestoft town centre.
The event will be open from 11 am to 3 pm, and let me tell you, there are going to be so very, very many fun things to do!
We are planning to have:
*Father Christmas Grotto! Bring your child to see Father Christmas! He will be popping in from the North Pole between 12.45 pm and 3 pm (with a short break halfway through for Father Christmas to have a cup of tea and a mince pie!), and all children who visit Father Christmas will get a present!
*A Body Shop at Home stall, run by the lovely Sarah. There will be fun things such as manicures, makeovers or hand massages using Body Shop products; free samples of Body Shop products; information on the fantastic Body Shop items available for Christmas; and a selection of SALE items, which could be great stocking fillers for Christmas!
*A button crafts stall, run by the lovely Jennie Button, who will be selling her beautiful handmade button crafts (an ideal gift idea for Christmas!)
*A cake stall, featuring cakes donated by Bushells Bakery, Heils Bakery, Boo Cupcakes, and lots of other delicious options. We also plan to have some delicious gluten-free options available!
*A raffle, with some really fantastic prizes such as:
- a 20" unisex child's bike
- a child's wooden chair decorated in a pirate theme
- Ted Baker sunglasses
- Rip Curl sunglasses
- a £99 eyewear voucher for Specsavers
- 2 sets of 2 tickets to see Robin Hood at the Marina Theatre
- a voucher for 2 people to play the par 3 course at Rookery Park Golf Club
- a child's scooter
- a voucher for a free sitting and portrait from Picture Studios
*A bric-a-brac stall, another great opportunity to pick up stocking fillers for Christmas!
*A tombola, always fun!
*Refreshments, selling steaming mugs of tea, coffee and hot chocolate, as well as squash.
And that's not all!!!
In addition to all our great stalls, we will also have lots of games for adults and children alike, including:
- Hunt the Reindeer
- Snowball Scavenge
- Lucky Christmas Bucket
- Christmas Teddy Treasure Hunt
- Lollipop Lotto
- Guess How Many Sweets are in the Stocking
- Guess How Many Lego Pieces are in the Stocking
- Bah Humbug!
And there will be opportunities for children to write a letter to Father Christmas, which they can then hand deliver to Father Christmas himself in his grotto!
And that's not all!!!
We will also have our Autism Table, packed with tons of useful information for those affected by Autism Spectrum Disorders, which will also be selling official National Autistic Society Christmas cards, Santa keys, and reindeer food!
And we will also be taking this opportunity to give a very warm welcome to our new Branch Officer, Jayne Page!
So ... why don't you come along and join us for what is sure to be a fantastic day!
And ... if anyone reading this is interested in helping our big day to be a success, we would love to accept any donation of bric-a-brac for our bric-a-brac stall, or cakes for our cake stall (any donations need to be sealed, for example in cling film or a box/tin!), then please contact us on the branch mobile number, listed on the side of this page, or by emailing either of the branch email addresses.
Thank you for reading, and we hope to see you there, on 4th December at the United Reformed Church!
