Created in 2009 as a local event which could be enjoyed by dog and horse lovers of all ages. As well as a fun and entertaining day out for both locals and visitors from further afield we use the event as a means to raise money for deserving local Dorset based charities.
The Criteria we set ourselves are:
- To keep the event local and community based
- To oversee every application for Trade Space and make sure it is high quality
- and varied - To keep the Fair the old-fashioned atmosphere that people enjoy so much
- To build on our success each year without losing sight of why we started the Fair
- To keep entrance fees and fair ride prices affordable - we constantly monitor this to ensure the public get value for money
- To personally touch base with all our sponsors, judges, volunteers and helpers as we are not a ‘faceless’ committee with a backroom support network. We conduct all emails, letters and phone calls ourselves.
Since inception we have raised the following amounts of money for local charity:
2009 £14,500 for Julia’s House Children’s Hospice
2010 £22,500 for Weldmar Hospicecare Trust
2011 £35,000 for Dorset & Somerset Air Ambulance
2012 £42,500 for Julia’s House Children’s Hospice
2013 £66,000 for Weldmar Hospicecare Trust
2014 £76,000 for Dorset & Somerset Air Ambulance
2015 £67,000 for Julia’s House Children’s Hospice
This total amount of £323,500 has made a real difference to these charities
