And thank you to all our sponsors, including our main ones (Ascona, Community Interest Care and Neyland Town Council), your kind donations are the reason we are able to put on this incredible event!
“Thank you to all stall holders, all volunteers that helped out and thank you to the fun fair for providing their services.”
