Christmas fayre first a real treat in Ashton

BUSINESS SUPPORT: The Waterloo and Taunton Conservative Club hosted its first Christmas Fayre.

Ashton's Waterloo and Taunton Conservative Club organised its first ever Christmas Fayre with a view to encourage footfall against an ever difficult backdrop due to coronavirus.

Stall holders from the local area were invited, free of charge, to set up their wares and sell their goods.

Stalls included ‘Baked by Robyn’, ‘My Silly Little Cards’, ‘Khrystina’s Natural Beauty’ and ‘Jayne’s Home Made Gifts’, plus many others.

Leon Tamcken, club chairman said: “We wanted to try something different in the club, whilst at the same time supporting local, independent traders. It’s been a tough year for businesses, so it was great to see so many people turnout to support the event.”

Club members also donated food items at the event to support local charity ‘Friends of Waterloo’ to make up food hampers for those residents in need over the Christmas period.
