POPPY APPEAL 2024

We are holding a coffee, tea and cakes afternoon in support of the Royal British Legion’s 2024 Poppy Appeal. Do come and join us, we look forward to welcoming you all.

Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal 2024
Nov 5th 2024 from 14:00 – 16:30 hrs

 

November 11th at 11:00 o’clock is our national day of Remembrance and Reflection for those who fought so bravely to safeguard our democratic values and freedom.

It is for this reason that it is so important not to forget the contribution of these young men and women who have served and sacrificed their lives in World Wars and who continue to do so in ongoing conflicts throughout the world in these unsettled times.

In order to commemorate and to continue to support, do come and join us on Tuesday, November 5th from 14:00 – 16:30 hrs at Ridlington Village Hall, for coffee, teas and delicious homemade cakes.

As with all events, places are limited, therefore if you can, please could you confirm your interest and attendance beforehand to anyone of us, so that we can ensure that there will be enough goodies to go round. If you are unable to attend but would still like to support, please let Shelagh know.

All donations and pledges will go towards supporting the invaluable work of the Royal British Legion. Really hoping you, your friends and family, can make it and looking forward to seeing and hearing from you….

Thank you

RURAL COFFEE CONNECT

Hello,

I work for the Rural Community Council Charity, a local charity supporting rural areas around Leicestershire & Rutland.

As part of this, we are working in partnership with the Rutland Citizens Advice Centre and have been visiting lots of locations in and around Rutland. We have been to many locations and have one more location to book in before our project finishes at the end of September.

We bring along our barista coffee van (https://www.ruralcc.org.uk/coffee/), park in the car park or roadside, set up our gazebo at the van & pop out a couple of chairs, and serve free hot drinks to local residents – this helps overall to reduce loneliness and isolation in the area, creates a lovely area for people to come along and have a chat, and also means that we can help to support people and tell them about what’s on in the local community, and how the Citizens Advice Bureau in Rutland may be able to help them in lots of ways.

We look forward to seeing you at Ridlington Village Hall, Main Street, Ridlington.
