Nineteen local charities and organisations, manning 30 tables, took part in the
Grand Charities Fair organised by Wimborne in Bloom and held in the Allendale Centre. Between them they raised more than £3,000 for the various causes they represented.
Stalls included those raising money for the Royal National Lifeboat Institution, High Mead Farm, Little Angels Knitting Group and Forest Holme Hospice.
Wimborne in Bloom also had a successful table with three hampers as prizes.
Entrance was free, courtesy of Wimborne in Bloom, but the public generously donated more than £170 on the door.
