St Mary’s Fayre | Sunday 14 September 2025

The Church and the Old Rectory will be the location for St Mary’s Fayre and the Arts and Crafts Competition. Thanks to Rebecca and Tom Sowler, we will once again have a chance to enjoy the lovely front garden of the Old Rectory as well as admire our historic Grade I listed Church.

There will be many stalls which will include cakes, plants, produce, books, tombola, toys, as well as a Children’s Corner of games and fun. Come along and try Splat the Rat! There will also be a craft activity that you can do, with flowers and maybe even ladybirds to make. A police car will be on show along with activities too.

Also, as part of the St Mary’s Fayre, there will be an Arts and Crafts Competition in the Church to enjoy. Classes range from photographs (Open and Nature around Launton) and flowers in a jamjar.There are adult and children’s classes. Some cups will be awarded too. To enter bring along your entry form (on page 24 of the print edition) with your Arts and Crafts entries, to the Church on Friday September 12 between 6pm and 8pm or on the morning of September 14 between 10am and 12 noon.

There will also be a wonderful display of “Greetings from Launton” cards which the pupils of Launton Primary School have made.

Join us on the day to admire all the entries in the church. Then relax with a cuppa, enjoy some cake, and have a chat in the refreshment gazebo

We would love to have donations of cakes for refreshments or the cake stall (see below), plants, books, tombola items or working toys.

If you require any information please contact us at this email: events@stmaryslaunton.org.uk.

We look forward to seeing you and thank you for all your support.
