    Thank you to Blendworth Trailer Centre

    A huge thank you to Blendworth Trailer Centre for the generous loan of a refrigerated trailer for this year’s Rowlands Castle Village Fair.

    The trailer was an essential part of our setup—keeping food and drink cold and safe throughout the day for both the BBQ and the bar. Your support helped everything run smoothly and was very much appreciated by the whole team.

    We’re truly grateful for your contribution to the success of the Rowlands Castle Village fair!
