Do you have nice holiday snaps like this one?

Food Bank
Ongoing contributions to the West Northumberland Food Bank of non-perishable food particularly cartons of long life milk, fruit juice, flavoured packs of noodles, jams & tinned meat, fish, fruit and vegetables continue to be welcomed as the need for food parcels is still necessary. The number of people seeking help has risen by 37% in the past year. Sue Applegarth will be happy to accept either food or alternately monetary donations. There is a basket in the Church Hall for any contributions. Please note that unfortunately the food bank is unable distribute food that is outside its sell by date.
Open Space
Our Church is now open from 10 30 am ~ noon each Monday to serve coffee/tea, and to have a ‘natter’ or a time of ‘peace’.
