Families Invited To Dr Kershaw's Summer Fayre

Dr Kershaw’s Hospice is inviting families to its carnival-themed Summer Fayre.

The fun-packed event, which includes live performances, a range of stalls, games, food, shopping and activities, takes place on Sunday, July 13, 2025 from 12pm-3pm. 

Entrance is just £1 per person and all funds raised will go towards helping patients in the Oldham community. 

Parents looking to keep their little ones entertained are warmly invited to the fayre where the hospice grounds will be transformed into a carnival wonderland. 

Children can try their luck on the hook-a-duck, tin-can alley or coconut shy. They can also brave the helter-skelter ride, bouncy castle and face-painting. 

There will also be live music and dance performances from local acts, along with a fire engine, raffles and a tombola. 

Plus shoppers can browse a variety of stalls, featuring everything from toys to jewellery and food. 

Alice Entwistle, Fundraising Events Lead, said: “Summer is ready to begin, and we are thrilled to welcome people to our hospice for this spectacular event. 

“Our Summer Fayre is really important to Dr Kershaw’s – not only because it helps to raise much-needed funds, but because we get to meet our amazing Oldham community. 

“By attending our events, you are helping us to support patients and families when they need us the most. 

“Best of all, you can have a great time and make some special memories too. 

“You can even have a sneak peek around our beautiful new gardens!” 

The event is kindly sponsored by Booth’s Garden Centre. There is no need to book in advance.
