They were taken from us far too soon

There will be the usual music, outside bar, various food stalls, fun fair for the kids, craft stalls and much more

Come along and enjoy a musical afternoon/evening and bring a chair or blanket to sit on and just relax and listen to the music. Don't forget to bring some sunshine with you.

Help us to make it an afternoon of fun and laughter after missing out over the last 2 years.

It will be so good to get together with friends and family again.
