About the kids market
For the past 20 years on the second Monday of the winter school holidays, advertised through Kids Fest and held at a number of different locations over the years, there has been a Kids Market.
An incredibly generous family has run this market since it began on a volunteer basis. As of 2017, they have passed the market on to Events 4 Good (also running it as volunteers).
There are two main highlights of this market, kids get to set up shop, learn how to negotiate and handle money as well as get out of the house for the day. The other huge benefit is that all money raised through tickets and any sponsorships goes to selected children’s charities. This year the money will be split between three charities, Cholmondeley Children’s Centre, Big Brothers Big Sisters and Home and Family.
