Despite the horrendous wet and windy weather last year the sunshine did come out and the Fun Day raised well over £7,000 for our chosen charities, the main beneficiaries being The Thames Valley Adventure Playground and Alzheimers Dementia Support. Thanks again to the support of residents in and around Fifield and Oakley Green this event was again a great success.
We had all the old favourites, plus the popular Mr Muddle bringing magical mayhem throughout the day and Anna Nightingale serenading us in between Mr Chris’ Punch & Judy Shows. We are expecting them all to be with us again this year.
We very much hope that we will always have the Fair Ground, the Dog Show, Punch & Judy, Tombola, Raffle, Auction, Beer Tent and BBQ, but we are always on the look out for new and unusual things for all the family to do.
So please do let us know if you have any ideas.
Similarly, if you feel you can contribute, please contact us. We need donations (raffle and auction prizes) sponsorship and, more importantly, volunteers.
If you can spare a few hours before, after, or on the day, we would be very grateful as the Fun Day would not be possible without the generosity of the locals.
We really want to make the Fun Day a great success again this year, so please do let me know as soon as you can if you are able to help for another Fun Day in Fifield!
Please call Louise on 01628 783448, or email Louise, or send a message
We look forward to hearing from you and seeing you on Saturday July 28 for more FUN!

The Fifield Fun Day has been held in August in Fifield village since 2003.
Originally the brain child of Gary & Helen – former landlords of the Fifield Inn – the Fun Day was successfully run by them and their team of volunteers for the first 6 years. Since then a stalwart team of volunteers has carried on the good work and in 2013 it came under the auspices of the Community Association.
The Fun Day was originally held in the grounds of Blenheims, courtesy of Paul and Tina and then, three years ago, it moved to it’s current venue - “Deep Meadows” the home of David & Patricia Buck. Deep Meadows gives the whole event a cosy, country fete atmosphere and the steam trains add extra nostalgia.
Every year the committee strive to improvement the entertainment on offer and the amount raised for charity. We aim to support two main local charities each year and a number of smaller local charities, children & youth groups and not-for-profit organisations in the Fifield area.
We hope that the favourite attractions will always be there:- the Fair Ground, the Dog Show, Punch & Judy, Tombola, Raffle. Auction, Beer Tent and BBQ, but we are always on the look out for new and unusual things for all the family to do, so please do let us know if you have any ideas.
If you feel you can contribute please contact us via the email buttons or phone numbers top right. We need donations (raffle and auction prizes) sponsorship and, more importantly, volunteers. If you can spare a few hours before, after, or on the day, we would be very grateful as the Fun Day would not be possible without the generosity of the locals.
We look forward to seeing you at the next Fifield Fun Day !!!
