If you go down to Holybourne this weekend you’re in for a beary big surprise.

A teddy bear tombola will be one of the highlights of the village’s summer fete from 11am to 5pm this Saturday (July 20) at the cricket ground.

Visitors can expect plenty of fun for all the family with live music, races, numerous stalls, crafts and a bouncy castle.

There will also be a church stall and a cricket club bar at the free event organised by the Holybourne Village Association.

Fifty teddies of all shapes and sizes will also be up for grabs at the tombola at the Holybourne Honeys WI stall with two tickets for £1 - perfect for any child looking for a furry friend.

With so many prizes up for grabs and exciting games, this memorable and exciting event is the perfect way for families to start the summer holidays.
