The market was held on Wednesday, December 3, with stallholders setting up shop in the Yalukang Aged Care courtyard.
The sunny weather and range of items guaranteed a steady stream of shoppers, including community members and REDHS staff.
It was an especially special event, as it was the first Christmas since residents had returned home to the aged care centre, following the completion of the hospital.
Among the stallholders were residents selling homemade goods such as crafted items, baked treats and knitted products.
Supporting the event, local business owners and community groups also ran their own stalls, selling beauty products, pottery, plants, art, toys and plenty of other Christmas gift options.
Robyn Muffit and Judy Mundy sold baked goods.
