WILMSLOW Animal Sanctuary is raising spirits again this Halloween by opening the doors to its Spooky Barn on the afternoon of Sunday, October 22 for all those who dare enter.

From midday to 3pm friends and families are welcome to bring their little witches and wizards along to enjoy ghoulish games, face painting and yucky dips in the eerie barn... but watch out for those creepy cobwebs and sleeping spiders.

Wing of bat and eye of newt refreshments will be served to all ghost chasers who come along. So put on your witch’s hat and pick up your broom and come to the sanctuary for a chilling afternoon.

The sanctuary is also looking for help with setting up (9-12), running the event (12-3) and clearing up (3-5).

Please email volunteers@heswilmslow.co.uk. If you can't help on the day, perhaps you would like to donate some bottles (alcohol, non-alcoholic drinks, toiletries or food stuffs) or chocolate (bars, boxes, little Halloween balls etc).

And if baking is your thing homemade cakes, cup cakes and bars etc will be served in in the refreshment tent, and all donations will be gratefully received and eaten!
