He said: “This is the first time we have done an event to raise money for Macmillan in Hillsborough Park.

“We are looking for people interested in paying to have a trade stall at the gala where they could sell arts, crafts, books, toys – or anything which would be suitable for a family.

“Also, if anyone is interested in running a raffle or tombola stall in aid of Macmillan then we’d love to hear from you too.”

The event will take place from 11am to 5pm and money raised will be used to provide practical, medical, emotional and financial support to people suffering from cancer.
