Summer Fete

Cakes Please!

Week 23 - Commencing Monday 2 June 2025

Posted on Tuesday 3 June 2025 at 11:08am

The Catering Committee are organising the cake stall.

Please do donate cakes – they can be home baked, but if you are not a baker, bought cakes are equally welcome.

They can be any shape, size or flavour, all will be gratefully received!

They can be delivered to the Parish Centre the day before, as I will be there, or on the day itself to the stall.

If you are buying cake with a reasonable expiry date, these can be delivered to the Parish Centre during opening hours* at any time.

Thank you very much!

Catering Committee Chairman

Summer Fete

Saturday 5 July 2025 from 1:00pm till 4:00pm

Week 23 - Commencing Monday 2 June 2025

Posted on Tuesday 3 June 2025 at 11:05am

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.
