NOT only was there food for the reindeer, there was even a small reindeer plus a lucky dip for the golden carrot, mince pies, and more at Yeoford Christmas Fayre.

Held at the Community Hall, stalls included jewellery from Kerala, India, Christmas decorations, calendars and sparkle pots made by children at the school, lots of hand-knitted items, book, games, sweets, and even Santa made space in his busy days to be in his grotto in a corner of the hall.

Helping him was Rubeun in an elf costume. The small reindeer was a charming piece of woodwork with orders taken for those who wanted one. It stood outside the grotto.

All proceeds were for Yeoford School PTA, the village church and Yeoford Playgroup.
