🎉 PARADE COLLECTION APPEAL 🎉

As our Gala Day parade makes its way through Thornton on Saturday, please consider bringing along any spare change to donate to our collection buckets.

Thornton Cleveleya Gala is run for the community and relies on donations and fundraising to keep this much-loved tradition going year after year.

Every penny collected helps us provide entertainment, activities, and events for everyone to enjoy.

So if you're coming out to watch the parade, please dig down the back of the sofa, empty those loose coins from your pockets, and help support your local gala! 💛

Thank you for your continued support – we couldn't do it without you.
