News from the Churches and Community

St Andrew’s Church We have our biggest programme yet for the Chesterton Festival with three concerts, a series of poetry recitals, a nature walk in the churchyard (and, separately, a historical tour). We will also be hosting a youth night, a Sunday afternoon Songs of Praise and a church decorated with flowers and a giant whale to tell the story of Jonah (the youth choir will be singing Jonah-Man Jazz, amongst other things, on Saturday 24 June at 4pm).

At the end of June we will be

saying farewell to one of our curates, Bridget Baguley, a week before welcoming a new one (Kathryn Waite)! On Sunday 2 July, 4pm, I will be leading a historical tour from Castle Hill down to St Clement’s in Bridge Street, exploring the origins of both Chesterton and Cambridge and taking us into the territory of the Vikings. More details of that and all our church events, activities and services for the coming months can be found on our website, www.standrews-chesterton.org. Nick Moir

St George’s Church It was very good to be able to move back into the church for Holy Week and Easter and to fill the cross with flowers and build an Easter garden. We continue to work in partnership with Cambridge Community Circus in our use of the space and it is great to have them with us. Another partnership, with the Cambridge Film Trust is continuing with a film showing during the Chesterton Festival and it will be great to welcome everyone in for that. We would continue to welcome suggestions and thoughts from all the community in the use of the space for the benefit of our neighbours and city. Ruth Adams

Upcoming events: Our monthly Coffee Morning is held at Hundred Houses office at 10am on the first Monday of each month unless it's a bank holiday. The next coffee mornings are 5 June and 3 July. There is a bimonthly raffle in aid of this year's charity Magpas.

Our Residents AGM will be 15 June at Freeman House at 7pm. Everyone is welcome and there will be refreshments afterwards.

We will also be having a stall at the Chesterton Festival Community Fun Day, Saturday 17 June, with lots of games and freebies, so do come and say hello to us!

The Southend trip will be Thursday 24 August leaving Chesterton at approximately 9.30am. Tickets are £5 for adults, £3.50 for children. Places are limited to first come first served.

On November 24 we are holding our fish and chip supper at Freeman House starting at 7pm. Tickets are £5 for an adult and £3.50 per child. Pre-booking is essential to ensure you have something to eat! For further information on these events please contact: Mairin Lennon 07795575003 or [email protected]

St Andrew's Youth Choir will be joined by singers from Chesterton schools to perform Michael Hurd's lively re-telling of the story of

Jonah and the Whale, Jonah-Man Jazz, 4-5pm on 24 June, followed by refreshments.

Chesterton Methodist Church By the time you read this the building works at CMC should be all finished. It will be good to say farewell to the toilets in the car park!

Please take a look at the website to see the latest news and to see when there will be some open days. Or just drop by and see if the church is open - you will be welcome to take a look round and see what has been done. Also on the website will be details of rooms available to hire.

I just need to say a very public thank-you to all the neighbours and Clarence House Nursery families and staff for putting up with six months of disruption. We know it will have been worth it in the end.

Peace be with you! Deacon Ian Murray.

Community Listener volunteers needed This  is  Lizzie,  she  is one  of  our  local 

Healthwatch   Cambridgeshire  volunteers and  is  helping  us  with  a  new  project  to look  at  how  health  and  care  services communicate  with  people  who  have  a sensory loss.     

Lizzie's told us "I am a service user myself and  have  disabili es  so  I  rely  on  good healthcare and support, such as having a good rela onship with the GP."    

Our  volunteers  are  people  like  you  who live or work in Cambridgeshire. You know the place you live and the people in your community. We need your help to talk to more people about Healthwatch and find out what care is like for them.  

You will  listen  to people within your local  community  who  have  used health  or  social  care  services.    This may  be  your  family,  neighbours  and 

friends,  or  people  you  meet  within your local networks. 

You may visit  local groups, chat with people and record what they have to say. 

You  might  talk  to  people  about Healthwatch  Cambridgeshire.  This may  involve  giving  a  short presenta on, or working with us on a display stand. 

 

We will give you training and support, as well  as  paying  agreed  out  of  pocket expenses.   

As  a Community  Listener,  you could also train to take part in our ‘Enter and View” visits to local health or care services. This is  our  legal  right  to  visit  places  that provide  publicly  funded  health  or  care services,  to  see  and  hear  how  people experience care. In the last year, we have visited  Addenbrooke’s  and Hinchingbrooke Hospitals.

informal chat. Call 01480 420628, email [email protected]
