Charity Partners
Hope House
We are proud to be partnering with Hope House as our official charity partner for the next 12 months.
Hope House Children’s Hospices are a centre of excellence for children’s palliative care, working to ensure that no one faces the death of their child alone. They support more than 750 local families who are either caring for a terminally ill child, or whose child has died.
Hope House and Tŷ Gobaith care for babies, children, young people and young adults up to the age of 25 years who have life-threatening conditions and are not expected to live beyond 25 years of age.
The care provided is in the form of respite care, care for young adults, antenatal and neonatal support, end of life and immediate care after death, sibling support and social work.
They also offer counselling and bereavement support to any family living in our area who has suffered the death of a child in any circumstance.
Help is available to children and families living in Shropshire, Cheshire, Mid and North Wales.

Pangea
Ian Unsworth, Pangea Sculpture’s founder, first saw animal sculptures being sold at the roadside whilst on a trip to Africa. He became fascinated with these fantastical sculptures and met with the artists and artisan’s for Sculpture Art and variety of other African Art. Ian bought a couple of pieces for himself and made arrangements to ship a container of these beautiful animal sculptures over to the UK to see if other people had the same reaction to them as he did. Naturally, people flocked to them and the entire lot sold within weeks.
Taking their name from the ancient supercontinent of Pangea, these sculptures will be on show throughout the trail and will be available to purchase via the Edgemere stand in the Christmas Village. Visit: www.pangeasculptures.com
