The annual Eynesbury bazaar went with a bang on Saturday, and organisers hope to have beaten last year’s total of �375 for the village association.
Organised by Gillian Robb and Georgina Corley, this year’s indoor event was hailed a “brilliant success” by Eynesbury Village Assocation chairman Steven Van De Kerkhove.
“This was all down to the hard work of our events committee and everyone involved,” he said.
The bazaar included performances by Eynesbury Primary School choir and the Langdale Academy street dance troupe as well as the presentation of community awards.
