Here, we will look to sell Christmas cards, and raffle tickets for the event’s main raffle and we are also looking into other activities, as well as an opportunity to raise awareness of the Cambridge Children’s Hospital’s plans.
Date and Times:
Friday 28 November – 4pm – 8pm
Saturday 29 November – 9am – 5pm
Sunday 30 November – 10am – 4pm
