MVP Christmas Fair a Great Success!

Ho, Ho, Ho, Merry Christmas! were Santa's last words as we saw him mounting his sleigh on top of the Methodist Hall in Mortimer last Saturday. Over 70 children visited Santa in his magical grotto, whispering their wish lists with quiet hopefulness. While visitors sipped mulled fruit spice and tasted delicious cakes made by local volunteers, shoppers were able to browse the various stalls in the Christmas Market. Mortimer 1st BP Scouts had a flowing stream of visitors to their soft toy raffle, handing out cuddly toys to children of all ages; one young child's reaction will remain with us for years to come, not old enough yet to speak but the smile on his face said everything!

While the grotto may be packed away now for another year, MVP always welcomes suggestions for our events. If you have an idea, please get in touch via our website www.mortimervillage.org.uk

MVP would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the volunteers who made this event so special for the children and residents of Mortimer and it's surrounding villages. If you enjoyed this event so much that you would like to be involved next year, please contact Olivia Arthur (this year's Chief Elf) at oa.arthur@gmail.com
