Kilroot Playgroup’s first Christmas craft fair ‘a superb event’
Carrick’s Kilroot Playgroup has received a funding boost through its first ever Christmas craft fair.
The event on Saturday, December 11, was a huge success, attended by current families, past families and other members of the public.
Two VIPs were also at the fair: The Mayor of Mid and East Antrim, Councillor William McCaughey and Santa Claus.
Featuring local craft stalls offering their various wares, the event raised £960.00 for the playgroup.


Lynn Mahood, leader of Kilroot Playgroup, which is based at Eden Community Centre, said: “I would like to thank our Committee for organising this superb event, especially Robert Adams and Lindsay Nelson who devoted an enormous amount of their time in doing so.
“Secondly, I would also like to thank everyone for attending and supporting the event and the playgroup. We all look forward to a similar event next Easter.”
