A WIRRAL festive fair in aid of North West Cancer Research returns next month.

Held in Thornton Manor's Walled Garden Marquee on Wednesday 1 and Thursday November 2, the hugely popular Wirral Bazaar features more than 70 carefully selected stalls offering a variety of unique Christmas gifts, which cannot be found on the high street.

Entertainment will be provided by SingMeMerseyside, The Bunker Boys and Birkenhead School Chamber Choir.

Last year's event attracted 2,800 visitors and raised a record-breaking £40,000 for NWCR. 

The fair gives shoppers the unique opportunity to donate to charity while Christmas shopping. The £4 entry fee and profits from the catering will aiso go directly to NWCR.

The event is organized by a volunteer committee, supported by friends and family. 

It is supported by corporate sponsors - The Mitchell Group, Cammel Laird, Investec, Harris Opticians, Guy Layton Williams and Thornton Manor.

Committee chair Kate Williams told the Globe: "Thanks to everyone who came and supported us last year - its was such a success!

"We've all worked really hard to make this year's Bazaar even better with more stallholders, offering you more choice, gifts for every member of the family - including the dog - and hoping making your Christmas shopping a little easier!

"It's also guilt free as 10% of everything you buys goes straight to NWCR. 

"We can’t wait to see you - please do come and shop, chat and eat."

The Bazaar will take place on Wednesday, November 1 from 3-9pm and Thursday, November 2 from 9.30am til 3pm.

Entry is £4, more details from www.wirralbazaar.com
