St Thomas’ Church on Woodland Terrace is hosting its Christmas fair this Saturday from 10am to 4pm.
There’ll be live music from The Woolwich Singers, the Crystal Palace Brass Band and classical guitarist Ellis Fox.
To raise funds for the church, there’ll also be a wreath-making workshop during the day led by Ali Edney, a professional homes stylist.
The workshop, which costs £45 a head, will help you make a “chic and elegant wreath from scratch”, with participants plied with Christmassy snacks and drinks by Angelique Glata, a professional chef.
“Rising utility costs are a challenge for all of us, including St Thomas’, and we are raising funds to keep the doors always open.” Angelique said. “Ali and I met at one of St Thomas’ community concerts and our friendship has seen us volunteering together at Greenwich’s Winter Night Shelter, at concerts and community events, believing in the warmth, hospitality and kindness that churches like St Thomas’ foster.”

No tickets are needed for the Christmas fair, but tickets for the wreath-making workshop can be booked through Eventbrite. For more information, contact Angelique on admin[at]moveablefeasts.co.uk.
