On 5th December the community holds the St Andrews Fair from 10-4, with a craft fair and Santa’s Grotto in the Social Club, carols in the Cathedral and the Christmas lights are switched on. All the shops and restaurants take part in this annual Christmas Bazaar.
A special Christmas Community market is being held for the first time, on Tuesday 20th December from 9:30 – 1:30 in the Social Club – with local craft and produce for sale.
