We are excited about the programme which is packed with activities for all ages and we hope the people of Drumaness and surrounding areas come out in force to support us and have some fun.
“Santa is here today to help us spread the word about the fair and to let people know that he will be raising money on the day to support a number of good causes including Cool FM’s Cash for Kids Appeal and the Hands for Alfie Appeal.”
Christmas stalls and crafts will be on display and people attending will also be able to take part in and some Christmas games and enter tickets for the tombola.
