Spokeswoman Madeleine Wadley said: " The choir have been collecting items all year to sell at the Fayre to raise funds towards the cost of running their Prom Concert, ‘Magical Movie Musicals’.

"The Fayre opens at 12.30pm and will run throughout the afternoon to 3.30pm with entry costing just 20p. There will be lots to attract visitor’s attention including bric-a-brac, clothes, books, jewellery, plants, tombolas with great prizes, a grand raffle, delicious cakes and lots more. Visitors will also be able to enjoy a refreshing cup of tea or coffee together with a sandwich or cake.
