A Craft Fair featuring a host of amazing local creators will be held in the Gregson Centre, Lancaster on Saturday 1st December.

As well as Santa in his Grotto, there will be 30+ stalls selling a variety of wares. These include fruit cheeses (not dairy), relish and vinegars, handmade jewellery, felt art, mosaics, Fairtrade items, hand-carved wooden gifts, glassware and glass crafts, and paintings.

Some of the offerings look amazing – well worth checking out for the folk in you life who like something slightly different for Christmas (or birthday).
