Nicki Smith, Anna Amasanti, Council chair Penny Smith, Miriam Dower and Susanne Runacres get into the festive spirit at the fund-raising event in Theydon Bois.
MORE than £1,200 was raised for the Alzheimer's Society at a Christmas bazaar in Theydon Bois.
The event, held at a home in Theydon Park Road last Thursday (November 26), saw hundreds of residents snap up some bargains from a variety of stalls from local businesses, and enjoy a selection of festive refreshments and a raffle.
Miriam Dower, who organised the day along with the house's owner Anna Amasanti, said: "Considering the current economic climate, we're very pleased with how it went.
"We are so grateful to all the local businesses who helped and supported the day, and who provided prizes for the raffle.
"It was fabulous to see so many people enjoy themselves."
Organisers hope to hold a similar event again next year.
