Blessing the People of Cleveleys in Jesus' Name
01253 921266

26th - 28th November
Our Church would like to invite you and your organisation to help celebrate and bring Christmas this year to Cleveleys at our Christmas Fayre and Christmas Tree festival, to compete for the prize of winning the Cleveleys Christmas Tree of the Year 2022. This year there is even a trophy to display for the winner!
This year, perhaps more than ever, the spirit of celebration and community that Christmas brings is sorely needed as everyone and every organisation deals with the cost-of-living crisis. To get through these times we need our community support more than ever. To help bring a festive smile to our community you are invited to bring a Christmas tree to the church, being as creative as you like, where votes will be cast for the winner.
At the fayre there will be many stalls selling everything from antiques to cakes, food and drink will be served, raffles, games and there will be activities for the kids. We also have a remembrance tree for people to decorate in memory of loved ones. The fayre is a very busy event and many groups including schools and uniformed organisations also come to visit. It is a great way of connecting with our community here in Cleveleys.
Below, you will find more details about the event, how to sign up and rules for the trees. If you would like to sign up please fill in the booking form below. Entries by Monday 14th November. We very much hope that you will come and take part as we celebrate the season together!

Decorating your Tree Tips
Please feel free to be as creative as you can! You are encouraged to create a tree that says something about who you are. We want loads of fun/interactive trees to bring that Christmas spirit to our town and children. Some examples could include:
-
A music group decorates a tree with silver notes.
-
A vets could use blown up gloves as decoration.
-
A nursery may encourage all the children to make a decoration
-
A bakery may make edible decorations so the public can try what they make.
-
Using lego to create a Christmas scene around the tree.
-
The possibilities are endless!
