Horley’s Virtual Christmas Market is now OPEN…

See below for details of the great selection of stalls available at the Ladies’ Guild Virtual Christmas Market 2020!

For further details and to place orders, contact horleyladiesguild@gmail.com

Horley’s Christmas Market will be virtual this year

Sadly we won’t be able to have Horley’s Christmas market in the Church this year, but a selection of the usual stalls will be available virtually instead.  More details to follow, but for starters, you can order Christmas cards and Advent calendars from one of our usual stall holders, Agnes from Flamingo Paperie, who will kindly donate 10% of all orders to Horley Ladies Guild in support of St Etheldreda’s Church.

Browse the online catalogue and then order from Agnes by visiting her website or sending her a message on her facebook page.

Mention ‘Ladies Guild’ in your order to make sure we receive our donation.  Please place your orders by 20 November and they will be delivered in early December.
