From 10am to 12 midday, this Saturday 11th July, any help you can offer to help maintain our beautiful special churchyard space would be very much welcomed by our regular band of volunteers. Everything is growing in abundance at this time of year and there are plenty of jobs that require attention. All you have to do is bring your gardening gloves and any tools you wish to use, and we can direct you to the important tasks. We deal with the garden waste afterwards. The church is cool inside for breaks and we have cold drinks available and a loo too! With thanks to our regulars and all who help, Kate and Marion
