Enchantica's Local Community Projects

Here at Enchantica’s we are passionate about our local community and our goal is to help as many people as we can, young and old, to shine bright. Find out about our current projects below:

Create a Choir Project 2023

We’re delighted to once again be creating something special that the community can be a part of this Christmas.

This six week “create a choir” project invited adults in the Harrogate area to work with professional singer Emma Carrington to perform at the Harrogate Christmas Fayre 2023.

Three rehearsals were undertaken in preparation for the three performances of Enchantica’s Christmas Community Choir every Sunday during the market at 12pm.

If you’d like to be informed about future projects throughout 2024, make sure you’re signed up to our mailing list at the bottom of the page, or follow us on social media.

At Oatlands Infants, we know that having an inspirational and safe learning environment is key to helping children to thrive. The resurfacing of our main playground will not only encourage imaginative play but the softer material will make it safer for our pupils. Constructing a brighter playground will also improve the appearance of our school within the local community, welcoming future students to our school. Obviously work on this scale comes at a price but we are confident that with the support of our PTA and local businesses we can produce the learning area our children deserve.

– Zoe Anderson, Headteacher

Events Reviews

Enchantica's events bring attractions, festivals, parties and special occasions to life!

There is only one word to describe what is like to work with Enchantica’s…magical! Working in collaboration for the Father Christmas Experience in 2021, at The Crown Hotel was a huge success, not only with the children, but also with the adults as well. The experience brought joy and happiness to every single person in the room, regardless of age. Tinel’s hard work and attention to detail, from planning, to the dressing and right through to the end did not go unnoticed by us and attendees, we could see her passion for the event from the very beginning and she certainly brought the Christmas magic to life. We are excited to continue bringing the magic of Christmas with Enchantica’s in 2022, with bigger and better additions to the Father Christmas Experience. Watch this space!

The Kids Zone was a huge success and vital addition to the Harrogate Fan Zone, 2019. Suzanne offered a range of activities throughout the week which engaged both local community groups and visitors who otherwise might not have engaged with the world championships. Suzanne’s approach was highly professional and collaborative, delivering an offer which matched the ambition and reach of the championships.

I just wanted to officially thank you for the wonderful day you provided yesterday at our centre. We had approximately 250 parents and children attend and you worked your socks off and your 'magic' to ensure everyone had a great time - you really made the day. Thanks again and we will certainly bear you in mind for further great days and spread the word about how fantastic you are.

We’ve worked with Enchantica’s at RHS Garden Harlow Carr since 2016 and have consistently been impressed with their professionalism, enthusiasm and ability to inspire and entertain both children and their parents and carers. I can’t thank Suzanne and the team enough for their hard work and although sadly we weren’t able to work together as much as we wanted in 2020 I’m looking forward to working with them again in 2021.
