Twenty Five years ago, when the Jubilee Room had just been revamped into a useful meeting room for the Church, three of us felt that we had the perfect opportunity to offer something to the Community both socially and maybe culturally, We began by inviting all the pensioners in the Parish to a Christmas Lunch. They all accepted and the room was full of incredible Christmas Cheer. From this followed fortnightly the Coffee mornings, some afternoon teas, the sewing group and Computer classes. There were also Flower arranging evenings, cake decorating and even Spanish lessons. and the very successful Art Group. The three constants were the Coffee Time, the Sewing Group' and the Art Group.
THEN, COVID HIT US ALL and stopped us in our tracks. We did not meet in the Jubilee Room for two years more or less. In the summer we did meet outside sitting well spaced as instructed. When we did finally get back to a new routine, sadly the Coffee Time fell by the wayside. although the sewing time and the Art Group thrive.
Now we want to restart the Coffee time on alternate Mondays Beginning on Monday 8th April from 10-00am to 12-00noon to see if we can once more enjoy that lovely chatty warm atmosphere that we had for so long. Everyone is welcome ,Ladies and gentlemen, from anywhere in the Benefice and beyond. Please come along and give it a try, What else is there to do on a Monday morning? It is no longer washing day, the machine does that. What is better to begin the week than a good coffee and chat. For any more information contact me on 01785 280397. Best Wishes, Jenny Muddimer.
