Julie Curtis and her family, organisers of the Beaufort Hunt Christmas Fair said: “The Christmas Fair is an important annual community event in our calendar; not only does it provide a platform for  businesses and a great shopping experience for local people on the run up to the festive period but it raises valuable funds for specific local charities, something we are immensely proud to achieve”.

This year we are thrilled to have given £4,000 each to Wiltshire Air Ambulance, Youth Action Wiltshire and Tetbury Hospital.  Each saying ….“Wiltshire Air Ambulance are very grateful to the organisers and attendees of the Beaufort Christmas Fair for their ongoing support of our lifesaving work. We receive no regular government funding and rely on donations to help raise the £4.5m we need each year to run the service. Thanks to this generous gift we can continue be there for anyone who lives, works or travels in Wiltshire, Bath and surrounding areas when they need us most”

“Youth Action Wiltshire is the national award winning ‘Youth Arm’ of Community First supporting local communities in the Swindon and Wiltshire areas, and we really appreciate once again your very generous donation and kindness which will be put towards assisting the respite for the young carers, their outdoor activities , courses in art, music , and directing them to dealing with everyday life”

“Tetbury Hospital as an independent healthcare provider, we deliver high quality services on behalf of the NHS and for private patients, and we cannot thank you enough for your very kind donation which will be put to immediate use with the upgrade of our Minor Injury Unit which will directly benefit everyone in our area”.
