Drop-in Coffee Shop – every Tuesday from 9:15am to 11:15am during school term
Every Tuesday from 9:15am to 11:15am during school term – this is for the Mums (or dads, grandparents, or whoever) on their way from dropping off their children at school. We meet in the lower Church Hall and you will be assured of a warm welcome and delicious coffee and home-made goodies.
So do drop-in and meet similar Mums (or dads, grandparents, or whoever).
There is no charge but a small donation to Church funds is appreciated
Communitea – a monthly tea party on the first Sunday of the month
Communitea is a monthly tea party on the first Sunday of the month in the lower Church Hall between 4:30pm and 6:00pm. All are welcome – no charge. If you would like to join us, you don’t have to book – just turn up and we will be pleased to see you.
If you know anyone who might also like to come, please do invite them. They do not have to attend St Margaret’s – just be someone who lives locally and who would welcome the company and the tea! If you have any questions please contact Angela or Michael Bridge on 01702 477126
Please note that due to the cold early nights, the next Communitea will take place on 1st March.
Church Fairs – held twice per year
Christmas Craft Fair on Sunday 27th November 12.30 – 4.30pm; we will be having a book stall, bottle stall, home made cakes and making up Christmas Hampers for a raffle. Any donations will be gratefully received. We will need help setting up on the Saturday late afternoon and help to man our stalls on the Sunday.
