Cream Teas
Scrumptious scones and the sounds of singing filled the church for our cream tea event this August. RJ Vocal Coaching Community Choir provided the fabulous mix of modern songs, accompanied by audience dancing and ending with an encore of ‘It’s Raining Men’.
Along with books and plants for sale, the event raised funds to support the building improvements of the church.
Our next Cream Tea is Saturday 14th September, 2.00 to 4.00pm, which will coincide with our Heritage Open day and Toy Exhibition.
