Summer Fete

Saturday 5 July at 1:00pm till 4:00pm

Week 18 - Commencing Monday 28 April 2025

Posted on Tuesday 29 April 2025 at 3:32pm

We can now take donations for our Summer Fete. So it’s time to start looking through your cupboards and garages for all those unwanted gifts and items you’ve been meaning to clear out.

We need donations for the bottle tombola stall, good quality bric-a- brac, children’s toys, games, jigsaws, general items for the tombola stall, sweets, chocolates, and books for the books stall.

We are now also able to PAT test small working electrical items if donated.

We would also be grateful for any plants for the plant stall but these can only be brought in a few days before the fete.

Items can be left in the box at the back of church or brought to the parish office during office hours. Please telephone first to check someone is there to take them in.

Many thanks for your continued support.
