nobody does SOAPBOX better than farndon!

 

It’s a whole day of madness and laughter for all the family!

 

Our very first Soapbox Derby in 2022 proved to be a phenomenal success with the crowds far exceeding our expectations! The Derby is a much anticipated, show-stopping community fundraising event that serves the entire village and our neighbours as well as the Hospice of the Good Shepherd. In 2023, we want to attract even more food, beverage, entertainers, crafters, artisans and local producers to support us and to become a part of this fantastic event.

The Farndon Primary School, our local shops and our village pubs, the Farndon community centre and playing fields, will all enjoy an authentic Village Fayre atmosphere and a rip-roaring party vibe with ample opportunity for everyone to contribute and join in the fun.

So, how can you get involved?
