Light refreshments available after the walk.

 

If you would like to give a donation towards the Easter lilies in the Church, please contact Margie Wall on margie.wall@hotmail.com

A remembrance list will be on the altar – please feel free to add names of those to be read out during our Easter Day service on April 20th. 

Thank you.

 

Can you spare an hour on Sunday, 13th April to undertake some simple gardening tasks in the churchyard?

Please let Debra Thatcher know if you can help.  Coffee and biscuits for the helpers.

Save the date….

April 12  – after the success of our first ‘Souper Saturday’ we’ll do it again!

Please join us at the village hall between 12 noon and 1:30pm for a choice of three delicious soups, bread, savoury scones and fresh fruit.

All donations to be shared between the church and Save the Children.

 

Just a gentle and respectful reminder to a minority to please pick up after your dog in the playing field. It’s just that we’ve noticed an increase lately in dog poop being left behind.

Thank you for your understanding.

Ridlington VH 2024 Report

Village Hall A:C SUMMARY 2024

The Trustees welcome anyone who would like to join us in maintaining the Hall for the benefit of all Parishioners. Please contact me if you are interested. You will see in the accounts that we have an operating deficit for 2024, but are fortunate that this was covered by interest from our deposit account which, although very healthy, will be needed in the hopefully very distant future to repair or replace the Collyweston slate front roof.

In 2025 we will be holding 3 coffee mornings, a Curry Night in October and a Christmas social night. If all these are well attended we would hope that we will not be in deficit again this financial year. And if anyone is able to organise an additional fundraising event for the Village Hall, please let a Trustee know, you will have our full support.
