Many of the showcased displays will be available to purchase, giving you the opportunity to take home a little piece of the magic, while helping vital funds grow for patients in our care.

Opening times:
• Saturday 9th May: 10am – 4pm
• Sunday 10th May: 11am – 4pm

Entry is £3.50, with all proceeds supporting Willow Wood Hospice. Admission is free for children aged 12 and under.

Light refreshments will be available – perfect for enjoying a cup of tea and a sweet treat as you let the afternoon drift by.
