A CHRISTMAS market is to be held to raise funds for a charity appeal.
Lexden Springs School in Colchester, which cares for children with severe learning difficulties, is holding the event on Saturday December 7 at the school in Halstead Road.
Stalls and attractions will be open for business from 12 noon until 3pm and money raised will go to the 100,000 Smiles appeal.
The appeal has a target of £100,000 to pay for a new playground for the children who have a range of disabilities.
Anyone who would like a stall, at a cost of £10, is asked to email appealfund@lexdensprings.essex.sch.uk.
