​Thank you to everyone who donated, helped in any way, came and supported us, ran a stall, helped set up or clear up, promoted us…

A huge THANK YOU to all who made our Christmas Fair on December 3rd a tremendous success. Everyone worked so hard and so many visitors commented on what a lovely occasion it was. The Church was buzzing with activity and we had a wonderful variety of stalls and refreshments. It was great to see so many visitors and children admiring Santa's Grotto and joining in the fun. We welcomed the other Churches from our Benefice to hold stalls, and it was great that they were able to join us and raise money for their Parishes too. Thank you to everyone for their generosity.
Happy Christmas!
