On Saturday 15th of June we are going to be holding our great big SNUG Sponsored fancy dress parade! It’s going to be a wonderful afternoon for the whole family

We invite you to grab all your friends and family, get dressed up and come along and join in some wholesome fun, all for a great cause! Everyone is invited!

The big aim of the day is to raise as much money as possible for SNUG so we can ensure families who have sick and preterm babies in the Region are provided with the support and resources they need to help to see them through difficult times, but we are going to have LOTS of fun in the process.


Fancy Dress Competition!

As part of the fancy dress parade, you will have the option to enter the competition – ooooo – along side this entry you will also get a free raffle ticket. Every child will receive a certificate for entering the parade, and prizes will be given to the BEST DRESSED BABY, BEST DRESSED CHILD and the BEST DRESS FAMILY – so what are you going to wear? Whether it’s shop bought, or hand made – we can’t wait to see your costume!

 


There will be a raffle being held on the day – you can either buy tickets before hand or they can be purchased at our event – £1 per ticket. Prizes are still flooding in for the raffle, including a huge hamper, great high street vouchers, family days out, lots of fun crafty bits and a SPA STAY FOR TWO at the amazing Hotel de Vin Exeter – we even have HOLIDAYS up for grabs! Yes you heard correct, holidays! This is certainly a raffle not to miss!!
