The Sir Bobby Robson foundation was launched in 2008 to help find more effective ways to detect and treat cancer. The foundation funds projects which directly benefit cancer patients, and also contributes to international research.
Organisers Rachel Wood and Anna Voyce said: “We recognised a gap in the market for a Christmas fair in the north Northumberland area, so we thought we would create one and raise funds for a worthy cause!
