Bottles urgently needed for St. Helen's bottle stall
Every year we hold a bottle stall at the May Fayre in Seaview and the St. Helen's Fayre on the green to raise funds for St Helen's Church. If you would be willing to contribute a bottle or two we would be most grateful. Wine to champagne; ketchup to shampoo; if it is unused, in date, and in a bottle we can use it to raise funds for the Church restoration project. Any donations can be left at the back of St. Helen's church or can be collected if you contact Rose Gillett or John Kerslake. With many thanks in
anticipation.!
Cakes needed for St. Helen's stall!
Calling all bakers!!! Is there anyone who would be willing to bake a cake or two for our stalls at the Seaview May Fayre or for the St. Helen's Fayre on the green in June? Any offers of help would be gratefully received! Rose Gillett.
Please note that St Helens APCM is being held in the Church this Sunday, 26th April, starting at 11:30am
