St Mary’s Church- Saturday 14th June . Bakers, sandwich makers, bunting creators and furniture moving partakers are all needed. The church will be open from 5pm – 6:30pm on Friday 13th and on Saturday 14th from 9am, for willing volunteers to drop off cakes, buns and biscuits, or to help set up and volunteer on the big day. This is a real community event, and it would be great to have volunteers from both St Marys and St Aelred’s parishes, to forge new friendships and support a great cause .
