A team from MJ Abbott, led by Contracts Director, Jim Price, have helped out with the set up and break down of the Berwick St John Country Fayre, held over the weekend of 17th & 18th September 2022.

Berwick St John holds is biennial Country Fayre in September three weeks following the Dorset Steam Fair.

The Fayre is run by a few Directors and a dedicated team of Committee members, with the entire local community getting involved. The Fayre is run for the benefit of a charity chosen by all those involved.

The first Fayre was in 1992 which was in aid of the Wiltshire Air Ambulance, since then other charities which have been supported include Bliss, Naomi House, Great Ormond Street Hospital, Multiple Sclerosis, Asthma UK, Diabetes UK, CLIC, Salisbury Hospital Stars Appeal, and the Dorset Kidney Fund. Since 1992 an incredible amount of money for a small community has been raised and over £200,000 has been given to these charities.
