In October 2020, St Bartholomew’s church took delivery of several nest boxes. This was part of the WWRT Wildlife Diversification Project with the nest boxes kindly being donated by “Severn Waste Services”.It was on an autumnal afternoon that the nest boxes were installed around the churchyard, so continuing the Eco-friendly approach to caring for God’s creations.On the following Sunday morning we were most grateful to Rev Becky Elliott for the blessing and prayers. As it turned out the rain held off long enough for the socially distanced parishioners to enjoy participation in the service.
