Do you love flowers?
Our lovely village church, St Mary’s, has many visi-
tors dropping in for a quiet moment, or as tourists,
and there is a team of people who make sure that
there are flowers in the church at most times to wel-
come visitors.
We would welcome any volunteers, of every age, to
join the team. You would be arranging simple flow-
ers on the windowsills or on the altar or larger ar-
rangements, whatever you’d enjoy! Some of the
team never come to Church Services, and we all
enjoy the feeling of history and calm in the Church.
The team will help you in any way they can and
we’d love to have a few more volunteers!
