ON BEHALF of the Lions and Lioness Clubs of Saffron Walden I would like to thank everyone who donated prizes, helped on the day or took part in the Michaelmas Fayre.

We are also very grateful to the town council and the media for the part they played in making the day so successful.

The performances given by three of our schools and two bands were very entertaining and were well-received by the crowd, we thank them for taking part and look forward to seeing them again next year.

The craft fair and refreshments once again went very well and all the pitches were sold out - our thanks to the organiser, Mike Adams.

The Showcase of Talent which took place in the evening was organised by pupils from the County High School together with the help of their teacher Mrs Jackie Smith.

The show was very successful and enjoyed by everyone who attended.

I should like to pay a special tribute to the pupils who worked so hard and so enthusiastically. We are very fortunate to have so many talented and caring young people in our community.

Both the charities of the day, Essex Air Ambulance and Teenage Cancer Trust will benefit from the total raised which will be in excess of £2500.
