A huge thank you to everyone who supported the Clear Out Sale on Saturday and helped make it a lovely village day.
£459 (wow!) was raised, thanks to everyone’s hard work, support and generosity.
All of this will go towards the repair and care of our lovely church.

The next churchyard working party is Saturday 10th February.
We will start at the usual time of 10 am and aim to finish around 12 noon. But it doesn’t matter how long you can join us for. It would be great if you can come along.
The jobs will include collecting fallen branches, (there are a lot after the storms!) clearing saplings, clearing North boundaries, clearing vegetation growing close to the church walls. And, as ever, anything else that you think needs doing at this time of year.
Please bring your own tools and a drink, and wear suitable shoes and clothing.
Thank you.
Hope you will be able to join us.
