A Request from the Magazine Editor

Malcolm would like to create a 'virtual flower garden' within the July Parish Magazine. If anyone has photographs of particular flowers that they would like included, please e-mail them as soon as possible to the editors here.

Press day is Sunday 13 June.

Many thanks.

Get Involved!

Please send your photos for our online Advent Calendar to webmaster

​

They should be autumn/winter photos of our local area; ones taken during lockdown would be lovely. We don’t promise to use them all as we’ll be matching them to an appropriate set of words, so the bigger the choice, the better.

Ones that fit the themes of darkness and light would be particularly welcome.  We may need to crop photos to fit the required size.
