The next Knowle Stamp Fair will be on Sunday 15th June 2025 at Knowle Village Hall between 9:30 am and 2:30 pm. The fairs are always on the third Sunday of each month, apart from May due to the Knowle Fun Run. Do come along and support your local stamp fair. You never know what you may find. Ask dealers, other than your usual contacts, and you may be pleasantly surprised at what they have hidden away.
Bernadette would like any unwanted stock cards or packaging to be saved for her as she needs it urgently to pack up stamps for Oxfam. If you can help, please contact Paul through the email on the Contacts page.
Please leave a message and we will get back to you.. Please indicate if the message is for a specific person/department.
