Running from Friday, May 12 to the following Sunday, this year's fayre will be a special celebration of the millennium.

Thanks to a grant from the Millennium Festival, the main event will feature the English Civil War Society.

Oatlands Village Fayre committee chairman Alan Palmer said: "This is a really special year for the Oatlands Village Fayre and with a full weekend of events we hope to raise a record amount of money for local charities.

"We are very grateful for the help of the Millennium Festival in funding our special events, and the support of our local sponsors, schools and helpers."

During the fayre there will be a live Music Festival featuring songs performed by local pupils.
