Jen Gordon of Sixpenny Sessions said: “Since we started Sixpenny Sessions we’ve wanted to do an event that was child friendly and affordable for families, so we are really excited to be bringing this mini festival to Handley.

“With outdoor activities on the cricket pitch, fabulous food from Jalopy Pizza, a barbecue, yummy cakes and tea, and of course a full bar featuring Sixpenny Brewery Ale and Cranborne Chase Cider, we know it’s going to be a fabulous day out for all the family.”
