Christmas on our doorstep – support local this yuletide!
With Christmas fast approaching, we’ve rounded up our favourite local places to shop, as well as things to do during December, all of which helps to support small businesses and our community.
Here’s our guide to what’s on and where to shop this Christmas.
What’s On…in Fetcham Village
Christmas Carols – Friday 3rd December from 4.30pm
To start the season, Father Christmas will be making a special appearance by the Christmas tree to commence the countdown to turn on the village lights at 5pm. Singers and musicians from St Mary’s Church will lead carols at the tree until 5.30pm. Members of LoveFetcham [link] will be handing out wrapped chocolates to the children.
Shopping and music event – Saturday 4th December, 12 – 2pm
The Martineau Brass Quintet will be performing outside Sainsburys filling the air with the sounds of Christmas. There will also be a well-stocked cake stall.

Local businesses on our doorstep…
The following are all a short walking distance from Fetcham Park.
Food & Drink
Gin from Raw Honey Distillery
Did you know there is a gin distillery in Fetcham? Founded this year by Sam Robinson, the Raw Honey Distillery is the UK’s first honey distilled spirit line. Choose from gin with a hint of zesty raspberry honey or gin with a hint of kaffir lime and orange peel. Sustainability is at the heart of this project. With every bottle sold you receive a packet of wildflower seeds. The tamper seal on the bottles is extracted from wood pulp and as such, is fully biodegradable. Just pop it in your food waste bin and it degrades in 12 weeks.
