Summer is coming and with that comes the Friends of Solihull Hospital (FOSH) Association summer fete and there are plenty of fun activities on offer to keep all ages entertained while raising vital funds for the hospital.

The event takes place in the grounds of Solihull Hospital near to the main entrance on Saturday 4 June between 1pm and 5pm. The fete will include a bouncy castle, children’s fun races, face painting, a large range of stalls, the draw for the summer raffle and a display of vintage military vehicles.

Visitors will once again be able to enjoy performances from a diverse range of local groups, including music from Birmingham Irish Pipes and Drums, dance presentations from Planet Dance, a martial arts display by the Association of Traditional Martial Arts and a dog training demonstration from Hatchford Brook Dog Training.

Admission is £1 for adults, with accompanied children, staff and patients are able to attend for free. There is also free onsite parking while at the fete.

Liz Steventon, chairman of FOSH, said: “We are really looking forward to putting on another fantastic event for all the community in Solihull to come together for an afternoon of entertainment and to raise money towards new equipment for their local hospital.

“FOSH hold events throughout the year and are extremely passionate about supporting Solihull Hospital and it would be great to see as many people as possible turnout to make the summer fete another great success.”
