Every Boxing Day Ditchling Mummers perform a seasonal folk play and raise money to donate to St Peter & St James Hospice. Community Carols start the proceedings at Ditchling Museum of Art + Craft, followed by the Mummers Play and then Morris dancing by Ditchling Morris.

About St Peter & St James Hospice: We are a mid-Sussex hospice, caring for people from Burgess Hill, Hayward Heath, Lewes, Uckfield, and the surrounding villages. We offer compassion, hope, and quality care, helping our patients live well until the end of life, and supporting their loved ones through the difficulties of bereavement and grief. All of our hospice services are free of charge. We rely heavily on the amazing generosity of our local community to help us raise more than £3 million every year. That’s £8,000 every single day.
