From the URC
The Festival Forecourt Sale went with a bang with lovely weather, a large attendance, a great atmosphere and takings of £932, including some private sales and add-ons. All in all, we felt that we made a useful contribution in helping to launch a successful and enjoyable Festival, as well as raising much-needed cash for our church and charities.
We’re going to give it one more go before the summer disappears, with a Late Summer Forecourt Sale on Saturday 10th September, from 10am to 12 Noon admission FREE. We won’t have our usual large array of plants because of the drought, but we will have some, so gardeners should definitely pay us a visit. What we will have also is bric-a-brac, books, collectables such as stamps and cigarette cards, boxed games and puzzles and pretty well anything else that comes in, except clothes or shoes.
Please have a look round for quality bric-a-brac [can’t get enough of it for our loyal buyer base!] and anything else that you might donate and bring it to the church between 2pm and 6pm on Friday 9th September or ring Richard Piper on 01895 634348 for collection. This is also the number for any enquiries or offers of help and we hope to hear from you!
