WELCOME

Here you can find out more about the Charity Craft Fair 
taking place in Worcester Park in Surrey on Saturday 19th November 11am - 2pm.

You can read about the wonderful charities that will be attending and we are fundraising for, as well as some of the projects you can support to help save babies’ lives and support bereaved parents and families.

Sadly, today in the UK 17 babies will die, the tragic victims of stillbirth or neonatal death. This is a statistic that is seeing no signs of decreasing, and behind each number is a family rocked to the foundations by the death of their baby. This shocking figure, the loss of 6,500 babies every year, is something the public is not generally aware of. Most people think stillbirths don’t happen in the 21st century. Yet stillbirth in the UK is 10 times more common than cot death.

We are holding a Charity Craft Fair to raise awareness of this devastating loss and of the charities who work towards saving babies’ lives, supporting sick and premature babies and helping more babies to be born healthy. You can take a look at the work they do and need to raise much needed funds for, as well as buy some wonderful handmade gifts in time for Christmas to support these amazing and vital causes.

We look forward to seeing you at the event!

Best wishes from the Charity Craft Fair Team
