Forthcoming ‘Events’
Sat 1st March 2025 – 10am– noon – Churchyard clear up
We , and the Parish Council, are asking for volunteers to help with a bit of a tidy up at St. Martin’s Churchyard on Saturday 1st March. As a ‘closed churchyard’ it is the Parish’s responsibility to maintain it but the Parochial Church Council kindly do the day to day maintenance. Every now and again, we need to do work such as clearing ivy off of graves and away from some sections of wall and have a general tidy up to ensure that nothing deteriorates, being mindful of wildlife along the way. We also need to tidy the edges of some of the paths which are growing onto the surfacing.
Please do come if you can and bring your own gloves and any gardening tools which you think might be helpful (secateurs, shears etc).
