Proceeds from the fete will go to The Wingate Special Children’s Trust.

The centre provides recreational activities and residential breaks for children and young adults with disabilities.

Jenny Monro, Fundraiser at the centre, said: “We are extremely excited to be back once again this year at Cholmondeley Castle Gardens, for our Family Fete with Teddy Bears’ Picnic.

“This year is looking better than ever, and all the monies raised, will provide much needed funds for The Wingate Centre, as well as a coming together in celebration of friendship and inclusion.

“We hope to see you there, don’t forget to bring your teddy!”
