Hovenden gala offers fun for all

The Hovenden House gala has been resurrected and takes place on Sunday, from noon to 4pm.

This was a massively popular event until 2009 when the last gala took place.

Attractions at the Fleet-based Leonard Cheshire home will include crafts, games, a raffle, classic cars and bikes.

Admission is £5 per car.

All money raised will go to the residents’ fund.
