CRAFTS and gifts filled a Portishead hall as shoppers prepare for Christmas.

A festive fair was put on the Folk Hall in High Street and featured stalls selling gifts, decorations, cards and many more items.

Organised by Claire Daly and Sue Hawkes, the event was held to raise funds for Children’s Hospice South West, which runs Charlton Farm in Wraxall and supports children with life-limiting or life-threatening illnesses and their families.
