FAMILIES are invited to a church’s Christmas fair in Bury this weekend.

Santa Claus is due to make an appearance at the event, which takes place at St Peter’s Church, in St Peter’s Road just off the A56.

Visitors are invited to take refreshments in the cafe or browse a range of stalls selling bric-a-brac, jewellery and other gifts. A tombola and cake sale are also scheduled for the fair, which is open between 11am and 3pm. Proceeds raised will go to the church. Entrance costs 50p, with children free.
