Daffodil Sunday is hosted by the Friends of the Revel C of E Churches, and all the money raised goes to support the maintenance of the six church buildings in the Revel - St Edith's at Monks Kirby; St Denys's at Pailton; St. John’s at Brinklow; Holy Trinity at Churchover; All Saints' at Harborough Magna; and St Leonard's at Willey.

Newnham Paddox is the private country estate of the Earl & Countess of Denbigh, which they allow organisers to use for the day.

Admission is £8, free admission for under 16s. Entrance and stalls will accept cash and contactless payments.

Daffodil Sunday is supported by: Brownsover Hall Hotel; TG’s Dental Suite and Ashton Lodge Country House.

A spokesperson commented on their behalf: “We are all really proud to be supporting this year’s event – there will be plenty to do for all the family, so be sure to pay them a visit.”
