The Church Wardens of St Peter and St Paul church would like to thank the Rose Fair Committee and all those people who worked so hard to achieve yet another wonderful festival.

The church, the flower arrangements, the stalls, the food areas and the car park all have to be organised, planned and eventually put into action with a great deal of effort.

Without visitors to support the event there would not be a Rose Fair, so a big thank you to all those from far and near who came.

We sincerely hope that you enjoyed the time you spent in St Peter’s, the other churches and tourist attractions.

A big thank you must go to the young people from Thomas Clarkson Academy. Sixteen students helped in the church hall, in the Rose Café and in the car park.

They all worked extremely hard and were a credit to themselves, their families and the school.

Many visitors gave tips to these youngsters which they knew they were unable to keep and so chose to donate this collection to the British Heart Foundation in support of one of their fellow workers and his family. We look forward to Rose Fair 2015
