NOTICES

Our Harvest Festival will take place at our next Sunday service on 2nd October. As usual we are collecting for the Food Bank and they are in desperate need for any tins or packets of food, sanitary products, pet food and money. All donations will be gratefully received. If you are unable to attend the harvest festival but would still like to contribute please contact Alan on 766604.

We are holding a Church Council Meeting here in the church on Wednesday 12th October at 2:15pm. Please come if you are able.

Helen Beesley has said a very big thank you to everyone who donated to her walk for Diabetes UK. We collected £165 which has taken her total to £655. Helen will continue to walk throughout September to reach her target of one million steps and you can follow her progress at https://step.diabetes.org.uk/fundraising/helen1293
