Thank you to everyone who donated parcels and ventured out in the wet weather to sing carols around the village. Thank you also to Jane and Kirsty at ‘The Queens’ for a warm welcome before we started out and to Michael and Hilary for the ‘afterglow’. We collected 191 parcels and raised £53 which we delivered on the following morning to ‘The Wellspring’ centre in Stockport. The attached photograph shows the preparations for the Christmas lunch after which our parcels would have been distributed. Two days ago we received a letter thanking the people of the village for our continuing support and generosity.
