The Meonstoke, Corhampton and Exton communities rose to the challenge of both English summer weather and the coronavirus restrictions to hold their church fete on Saturday, much to the joy of those who were looking for the return of countryside events. With the early rain subsiding, visitors could once again stroll among the stalls and games, sampling local fare and sipping Pimms. While hand sanitising stations and contactless payment on food stalls were a sign of the times, the record number of Grand Raffle tickets sold – almost 2,500 – showed that many welcomed the reappearance of the village fete in the Meon Valley. With generous donations to cover the running costs, and prizes ranging from a private vineyard tour, cash, or a luxury hamper to vouchers for local pubs, florists, breweries and butchers to name a few, it was clear that support from local businesses and donors was equally enthusiastic.
