The weather was appropriately chilly for St John’s Christmas Fair, held on Saturday 21st November 2015, but fair-goers got a warm welcome from the stall holders, and the Caversham Community Cafe was on hand to provide a cup of tea or coffee.
The cake and toy stalls were very busy and there were some lovely homemade Christmas chocolates on sale on the Guides’ stall. The tombola was popular with scores of prizes to be won, and a raffle was held for a beautifully iced Christmas cake. Decorations for the tree and handmade cards were just some of the items on offer on the Christmas stall. Other stalls included jewellery, jams and marmalade, books, crafts, and there was a raffle with many prizes including a splendid hamper.
The fair raised over £1100 for church funds; thanks go to all who helped.
