On Saturday August 3, over 400 people attended Longfield Community Hospice’s Summer Fayre.

With vintage cars, hoopla, craft stalls, tombola, and homemade cakes aplenty, there was something for all the family to enjoy.

A few brave souls also took on the Ice Walk: a barefoot stride over hundreds of sterilized broken bottles.

Longfield’s CEO Clare Davis, completed the challenge.

She said: “What an incredible experience! It was wonderful to see so many local people coming together to have fun and support Longfield’s work. All money raised on the day will help us care for local families when they need us most.”

Longfield is a Community Hospice for the people of Gloucestershire and all services are free of charge to patients and their families.

As well as providing hospice care in the home, Longfield also offers a range of therapy and support services for patients, families and carers at the Wellbeing Centre in Minchinhampton.

The majority - 85% - of their funding comes from the generosity of the public.
