Keeping St Martin’s Church looking cared for….

Do you have an hour or two to spare every two months or so?  The church needs to be vacuumed, mopped and dusted weekly and we have a rota which now has some gaps to be filled by some new volunteers.

It is preferable to have pairs working each session and some of our current team need “partners”. If you would be willing to join the rota please do contact us without delay.
