Guests were also asked to bring along a blanket which will be donated to the less fortunate. This was the second CANSA Community Fair.

The previous one was held in October last year. According to Palmer, this year’s was better attended.

“The funds raised are also more than last year. The guests loved and enjoyed the wishing well, they bought tickets and won prizes,” she said.
