All money raised at the event will be donated to Cancer Research UK.

It takes place from noon to 4pm on Saturday, July 16 at the scheme on Worsley Mesnes Drive, in Worsley Mesnes.

Manager Vicky Smallwood said: “We want everyone to come and join us to have some fun, buy some things but most importantly help raise money for this vital charity. If there are any businesses or individuals who have items we can raffle or put in the auction, there is still time if they get in touch.”

Anyone who can help with raffle and auction items can contact Vicky on 01942 492049.
