DACA Christmas Fayre raises £700 for Derian House.
The Fayre featured a variety of stalls, including local vendors and DACA-led initiatives, offering everything from fresh homemade hot food to hot and cold drinks and sweet treats. Attendees had the chance to win exciting prizes through the DACA tombola and raffle stalls, with every penny raised going directly to Derian House, a charity dedicated to providing essential care for children and families in need.

One of the most popular attractions of the day was Santa’s Grotto, where visitors young and old got the chance to meet the man in red and share their Christmas wishes. The event also featured live music from DACA students, who added to the festive atmosphere with their performances. Families enjoyed free arts and crafts activities, as well as the chance to write letters to Santa. Blackburn Rovers Community Trust hosted a free penalty shootout, and even the Darwen Grinch stopped by, adding a playful touch to the celebrations.
The Christmas Fayre was a shining example of community spirit, leaving attendees with warm memories and festive cheer, all while making a significant impact for a meaningful cause.
