The Gift People is a creative workshop for people with disabilities. The group creates many different products throughout the year and around Christmas each year it hosts a fair in the premises to sell what has been made to raise money for new projects.
This year any funds raised will go towards a music area.
A spokesman for The Gift People said: “We had a really good turnout last year and we hope that people will support us again.
“Everyone is most welcome to come along and peruse the various stalls.
