🎅 Santa will be taking to the streets of Farsley on Thursday 14th December to once again raise funds and to collect door-to-door food donations for our local food bank!
✂️ Join us in Sunny Bank Mills on Mondays from 6pm - 8pm and get crafty creating fun outfits and accessories for the volunteers to wear on the evening.
This year we'll be raising money for Pudsey Community Project; a local charitable organisation started from Pudsey Parish Church to provide community, youth and poverty resources for Pudsey and the immediately surrounding area.
✨ We’d like to ensure that everyone volunteering at the Food Drive looks as festive as possible!
The parade around Farsley is essential for collecting donations for the Food Bank but it’s also a way to spread some Christmas cheer to many people who in the community who may otherwise struggle to access festivities over the Christmas season.
Plus, it’s just a great excuse to get dressed up!
📍Craft Evening Dates & Locations:
