💖 CHARITY STALLS
We believe that it is our responsibility to re-pay the community for all the support
we’ve enjoyed over 25 years. So we have always made it our responsibility
to help charities with a special offer. We don’t give money but help them to help
themselves by giving them a very special deal on the price of a pitch. We particularly like having the smaller charities with us. For instance every year a husband and wife raise money for a special school to have an outing and any money left over is used towards much-needed equipment. Speak to one of our team, or phone us on 07852 70 70 74.
🗺 HOW TO FIND US
You can find us on the A507 just outside of Baldock. Coming from the A1 take the second exit from the ‘Tesco’ roundabout, follow this road to the next roundabout and then turn right. We are on the right just up the road.
📍For Sat navs use SG7 6RD which will bring you close enough to the field.
