Christmas Fair

On the final Saturday in November – the 29th – the Rotary Club of North Fife have gathered a seasonal celebration to enjoy at Newport-on-Tay’s Blyth Hall. The Fair will run from 10am until 4pm and includes:

• 30+ craft exhibitors as well as local charities – great gifts for Christmas
• The ever-popular Rotary Vegetable Stall serving only locally grown products at good value prices!
• A fab raffle
• Well-loved and cared-for books stall – including jigsaws and ‘pocket money toys’ plus games for children

And when you get hungry? Between noon and 2, there will be a seasonal Hog Roast by The Spitting Pig of Balmullo.  Come along and meet family and friends for a pre-Christmas get together with the opportunity to buy cracking Christmas presents too!

Santa’s Sleigh!

The Rotary Club of Cupar is back with their much-loved Santa’s Sleigh – helping to raise funds for Cupar Food Bank and Age Concern Cupar. They will be visiting destinations across north Fife before the big day. Organisers stress that “weather, breakdowns and/or umpteen other reasons means the routes are NOT guaranteed” but they will do their very best to cover as many areas as possible.

The following list – which includes the many organisations in support – is a guide only, so please keep an eye on their page for updates and more information via this link. And if you would like to contribute to their running costs, you can do so via their Just Giving page on this link.

Santa will then be very busy getting ready for the big day!

Reverse Advent

Join the Cupar Food Bank Reverse Advent Calendar campaign. Throughout November, we have been posting images of items the Food bank needs to help make up hampers for distribution in December.

• 𝗪𝗵𝗼? Not everyone will be able to take part but if you can, it will help to make a real difference to some of our area’s most vulnerable.
• 𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲? Our Food Bank supports people right across north-east Fife, from Newburgh to Crail.
• 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁? Everyday items as well as the occasional festive treat; we’re posting items they need on a daily basis as a guide … so scroll back to see any you’ve missed.

 

• 𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗻? Every day from now until the end of November – an item a day for 24 days, just as in the traditional Advent calendar.
• 𝗪𝗵𝘆? Many are facing very tough times with increasing living costs, energy bills and more. If you are able to help, your generosity will mean a great deal to so many during what can be a very challenging time.
• 𝗛𝗼𝘄? Pop the item we feature (or something similar) into a box at home, your place of work or in your school and – come Monday 1st December – drop your gathered items into the Food Bank in Cupar. They will then manage their distribution to those most in need as they count down to Christmas.
