More Frost Fair activities
Our re-imagined Frost Fair celebrates some of the traditional and not so traditional activities, food and drink of the time…
Bankside’s Frost Fair is working in partnership with local charity the Manna Society who run a day centre for homeless people providing much needed food, hot showers and housing and welfare advice.
As the Frost Fair was historically a time to support community and those in need, we are asking Frost Fair diners, drinkers and revellers to ‘pay it forward’, donating to ensure this charity continues to provide this vital service in an extremely challenging time.
Donations can be made through the dedicated JustGiving page. The target is £5,000, which is the weight of a small elephant (5000lbs), the symbol and icon of Bankside’s Frost Fair.
Please give what you can. Thank you.
