Hundreds of people are expected to visit Christchurch on 7, 8 and 9 November for the 10th annual Jigsaw Festival.
They will be greeted by the spectacle of a giant patchwork of completed jigsaw puzzles which are replenished constantly as puzzles are sold and reunited with their boxes. A small army of jigsaw enthusiasts from Ilkley and beyond have spent the last year putting together hundreds of puzzles.
There will also be new boxed jigsaws on sale, donated by some major jigsaw manufacturers and retailers.
Over the years the festivals have raised thousands of pounds for a wide range of charities and projects. This year the beneficiaries will be Manorlands hospice and Mind (Bradford district and Craven).
The popular Christchurch Café will be open throughout the Festival.
The Festival is open between 10am and 4pm all 3 days and entry is free.
Telephone enquiries can be made on 01943 603209, 07907 122169 or 01943 600111, or by email to office@christchurchilkley.org.uk
