Local MP joins the fun of the fair

Residents and visitors were out in force for the annual Henbury Fete last weekend.

The fete, held at the village’s Millennium Green, was jam packed with fun activities, including archery, plate smashing plus a raft of traditional activities including May Pole dancing – involving children from Whirley School.

The fete was opened by MP for Macclesfield, David Rutley, and Cheshire East Councillor, Lesley Smethem.

Speaking at the event, David said, “It is once again an honour to be able to open the Henbury Summer Fete, which is an important fixture on the village calendar. The Fete, as well as being great fun for all the family, raises much needed funds for local community causes. I would like to thank Ann Cousins and her team of volunteers for putting this together.”
