An incredible £25k raised at our Easter Fayre

The community came out in force to support St John’s Hospice at our annual Easter Fayre on Saturday 30th and Sunday 31st March, raising an incredible £25,000.

‍

Families and supporters of the Hospice were entertained during the two-day event, enjoying live music and participating in performances on our Community Stage.

‍

A wide selection of delicious food & drink from local stallholders were on offer, and you could also find gifts, crafts and handmade fashion. Children of all age groups participated in the Easter Egg Hunt around the gardens, and this year families could get up close to a variety of animals at the Petting Farm.

‍

Fundraising Director Mark Thomas said, “We would like to say a huge thank you to all the staff, volunteers and families who came out to enjoy our Easter Fayre and raise funds for our Hospice. Also a big thank you to our sponsors, Danubius Hotel Regents Park, The St John’s Wood Society, Casualty First, City of Westminster Council and Regal Shoes for your generous support.”

‍

“A special thank you also to Tesco, Co-op, Waitrose & Partners and Sainsbury’s for supplying over 500 Easter eggs for our Easter Egg Hunt and Indaba Yoga for the raffle prize.”
