This free-entry event promises festive cheer for all ages, with a wonderful mix of local stalls, handmade gifts, seasonal treats, and joyful entertainment. It’s the perfect opportunity to shop for unique Christmas presents, enjoy delicious refreshments, and soak up the holiday spirit. Every penny raised will go towards supporting vital services and improvements at Conquest Hospital, helping to enhance the diagnosis, treatment and care it provides.

“We’re thrilled to host this year’s Christmas Fair at Bluebell Coppice,” said a spokesperson for Friends of Conquest Hospital. “It’s a wonderful way for the community to come together, celebrate the season, and help us raise funds that make a real difference for patients and staff at the Conquest Hospital.”
