Silent auction for the 2024 fête

New for the 2024 Bellingdon and Asheridge Village Fête, we’re running a silent auction where you can bid for some incredible items (via email to fetesilentauction@gmail.com or at the fête itself).

We’re lucky enough to have been given three amazing donations for you to bid on:

1. A pair of ice skates, signed by Olympic gold medal winners and Dancing on Ice judges Torvill and Dean, courtesy of ITV Studios.  

2. Two audience tickets to the Pinewood Studios recording of any episode of Taskmaster series 19 in September 2024, courtesy of Avalon UK.

3. A morning of trout fly fishing at the members-only Latimer Park Trout Lake with instruction. Tackle and picnic lunch included.

You can place your bids via email now: fetesilentauction@gmail.com or in person at the raffle stall at the fête on Saturday 29th June. When we close the bidding at 4pm on the day, the highest bid for each item wins!

There’s nothing to pay unless you win your item, so just let us know how much you would like to bid. 

To find out more, or to place a bid, email fetesilentauction@gmail.com or come and see us at the fête. The lucky winners will be announced after the raffle has been drawn.

Also: Don’t forget you can buy your raffle tickets online ahead of the fête!

Can you help?

Planning for this year’s Bellingdon and Asheridge Village fete is well underway, and we’d really love your help to make it a fun day to remember for the whole family.

All we need is a few hours of your time on Saturday 29th June.

There are all sorts of things you could help us with:

  • Running one of the many great game stalls we’ll have for children (of all ages)
  • Serving teas and delicious home-made cakes
  • Helping with our barbecue and drinks bar
  • Selling books and bric-a-brac
  • And more

Just reply to fete@bellingdon.com if you’d like to find out more.

Thank you!
From Paul and the whole fete team

Village Fete THIS SATURDAY!!

Two more sleeps and then it’s the Village Fete!!  Classic Cars, pooches, cake baking goodies at the ready…..

And its looking like its going to be a very good one, by the looks of the very generous and high quality donations from everyone.  Thank you so very much.

Drop off is at noon on Saturday for any baked goods for the tea and cakes stall in the Village Hall.

Also, if someone can help our (not very good) sleuths… we seem to have misplaced the ladies’ Tug of War Trophy (!).  Do you perhaps have it, or know who may have it, please can you let me know.
