Chineham & Sherfield Park Scarecrow Trail

Come and join Basingstoke and District Disability Forum (BDDF) on 28th-29th May for this fantastic annual community event. ‘The Rolls Royce of Scarecrow Trails’ returns, which follow this years’ theme ‘A Moment in History’ to coincide with the Queen’s Jubilee celebrations. Last year, we surpassed all expectations and the 500 families that attended enjoyed the 68 amazing entries over 2 trails which covered a total of 8 miles. This year all scarecrows will remain on display over the extended Bank Holiday weekend until 5th June, so everyone has a chance to complete the trail.

Chineham Christ Church will host us on Saturday 28th with a community café, you can get your trail map, raffle tickets and a cup of tea and cake. On Sunday Sherfield Park Community Centre will host and we will be joined by local charities offering lots of fun activities for the whole family. 

If you are unable to visit at the weekend you can download a copy of the map at www.bddf.org.uk, or collect a copy from Chineham Christ Church.  We are a small charity and rely on the support of our volunteers. If you would like to get involved, please contact suzi@bdf.org.uk. We are still able to take stalls on Sunday 29th May and are looking for volunteers for the weekend. 

By supporting this event you will be raising vital funds for the charity– all services are free to access, from seated yoga to IT courses and our signposting services, and will support our mission to facilitate increased awareness, active involvement, and healthy promotion of disability and those who live it. For more information, please visit www.bddf.org.uk, telephone 01256 423869 or follow us on social media to keep up to date.

Thank you to Loddon Properties for sponsoring the event again this year. 

We can’t wait to see you over the weekend!
