Ferryhill Town Council is saying thank you to everyone who went along and supported its Christmas Fayre, held on Friday, 24th November.
A spokesperson said: “A special thank you goes to: all the stallholders at the Christmas Market; to Turners Fun Fair for providing show rides and catering vehicle; to the town’s primary schools for their fantastic carol singing in the Town Hall garden; to Blackberry Donkeys for bringing along two of their festive donkeys; to Glittery Girl face-painter Dawn Belshaw; to Mr Windbags for providing children’s entertainment, and not forgetting Santa who took time out of his busy schedule to greet local children in a special grotto inside the Town Hall.”
Despite the bitter cold weather conditions, hundreds of people turned out for this year’s Christmas Fayre event and watched on as Max Wanless and Bella Rennison, two pupils from Dean Bank Primary and Nursery School switched on the Town’s Christmas Lights accompanied by Mayor, Councillor Curtis Bihari.
Cllr Bihari said: “It was lovely to see the community of Ferryhill come together to enjoy the Christmas Fayre with all its activities. It was great to see that the freezing cold weather didn’t deter people from attending the event, which shows what an amazing community Ferryhill really is.
“A big thank you goes to everyone who participated and attended this year’s event.”
