Over 25 local businesses rally to support hospital’s Outdoor Market

Monday, 31 March 2025 18:55

Carla Weatherall, Fundraiser for Airedale Hospital and Community Charity

Airedale Hospital and Community Charity’s Spring Market is set to be a showcase of fantastic local businesses this April whilst raising funds for their Emergency Department Appeal.

Taking place on Sunday 27 April between 10.00am – 2.00pm in the P3 car park at Airedale General Hospital, the charity is extending an invitation to people far and wide to shop local and support businesses from their communities.

Stallholders on the day include Silsden based Olive and Green, pick and mix fanatics Sweet Talk Confectionary, beauty gurus from The Beauty Nest at Steeton, children’s author Penny Haygarth and a staple tombola there’s something for all ages.

Carla Weatherall, Charity Fundraiser commented:

“We have a fantastic variety of businesses joining us at the Spring Market, we can’t wait. You can even grab a puppuccino for your four-legged friend at the Brewed Awakenings Coffee Van.

“With so much on offer, it’s the perfect way to spend a Sunday and 10% of proceeds raised on the day will go towards our Emergency Department Appeal total.”

There are still places available for businesses and if you would like to enquire about a stall at the market, please email anhsft.charity@nhs.net or call 01535 294870 to speak to a member of the charity team.
