“Last year the Fair raised £21,850 for a number of local charities, and since 2005 we have been able to distribute £75,000 to a number of good causes,” Canon Anthony Dwyer Parish Priest of Our Lady of Grace and St Edwards. “While it is good that we can come together and have an enjoyable day at the Fair, it is also good that we are able to provide support for those who respond to a variety of needs in our local community.”
This year the three main beneficiaries will be: Acton Homeless Concern, Cedars and Hounslow Extra Club, as well as Age Concern Chiswick, Cystic Fibrosis Local Support Group, Trusell Trust Foodbank, Greenhouse, Hounslow Siblings Group, The Pensioners Club and Parents in Touch (PiT) who will be also sharing the takings.
