A Musical Feast from the

Loveden Quartet

and the Hougham Players

Concert goers to St. Vincent’s Church,

Caythorpe on Saturday 16th May were

greeted with the music from the

Hougham Players whilst they found

their seats. This local group of

instrumentalists played a number of

pieces including Pachelbel Canon,

Handel’s Water Music, and the Minuet and Trio by Boccherini and set a most

enjoyable atmosphere for the evening.

The Loveden Quartet, singing acapella, then gave us a wonderful mixture of music

from the 16th to 21st century with subtle harmonies. From William Byrd and Palestrina

through to George Gershwin and several pieces arranged by Nick Thorpe who sings

Tenor in the quartet.

Elspeth Fraser-Darling and David Taylor sang a touching duet ‘I carry your heart with

me’ especially composed for them by Michael Derry. The soprano, Susie Mathieson,

effortlessly reached notes that some

of us would love to! Vicky Thorpe

played some lovely flute music by

Handel and Chopin.

A big thank you goes to The Loveden

Quartet, Vicky Thorpe and the

Hougham Players. We really had a

musical feast, which was then

followed by a delicious buffet

kindly provided by the PCC. It was a great evening. The proceeds are going towards

putting in a disabled access at St. Vincent’s. Caythorpe PCC

Mid Uk Want Vehicular Access on Sundays

and Bank Holidays

Almost sixty residents of Carlton Scroop and

Normanton attended a recent Parish Council meeting

to consider the threat of more commercial vehicle

intrusion through the villages as a result of Mid UK’s

application for full 7 day week / 365 days per year

vehicle access to their Caythorpe plant. Such a move will mean lorries thundering up

and down the A607 through the narrow village highways on every day of every

week.

The meeting was attended by Councillors from Carlton Scroop, Caythorpe and Fulbeck

Parishes and from both SKDC and Lincs County

Council. Around 20 members of the audience

expressed their personal views; every one of which was

against the proposed increases in traffic.

One of the principal concerns of residents was how best

to frame objections and after extensive discussion it was

agreed that a small working party of Councillors and

residents would be formed to put together a strong

objection and prepare material for presentation at the

LCC Planning Committee meeting expected on June 8th.

Parish Councillor Mike Robinson’s on-line ‘Newswire’ is updating regularly this and

other local issues. If you would like to receive this information send an email to

My father gave me the greatest gift anyone could give another person.

He believed in me. - Jim Valvano



Ramblings of the Old Rector

Four weeks ago my wife noticed a smudge on a window of our Garden Room.

“Nothing to do with me,” I cried, getting my defence in first. Then she found the

stone-cold form of a blue tit on the ground beneath the said window, its wings

outstretched in surrender; it was quite dead. Today, as every day since, her mate

visits the nesting box in our garden to see if she has returned home. I feel I should

offer counselling, or, at least, a Requiem. Meanwhile, a blackbird, who shares our

garden, sings a merry tune on the gable of our garden shed. It is an attractive tune,

and I offer the notion that composers crib their best tunes from garden birds.

A friend, who is a Professor of Micro-biology, has asked me to review his latest

book: a biography [1]. His subject is a mutual friend who is a retired Professor of

Social History and as well as being a polymath is a national figure; an educationalist,

and among other achievements is a founder of the University of the Third Age. I

protested that there must be more qualified reviewers, but in vain. The publisher has

now sent me a review copy of the book, and I find that it is a well-researched and

well-documented account of our mutual friend’s busy life. At my time of life one

cannot afford to lose friends, so I read it assiduously and made copious notes. I

enjoyed reading it and I offered a candid review, and both author and subject seem

to be pleased with my effort. We are to lunch together in London, then I will know.

Meanwhile, despite a vow I made in 1967 never again to travel on a Bank Holiday,

we went to London on Bank Holiday Sunday to take part in a Coastal Command

service of remembrance at Westminster Abbey. I caught the 9.35 train from

Grantham, but it parked in St Neots’ station for over an hour (thank you Network

Rail). I was among a group of football supporters on their way to Stamford Bridge to

watch Chelsea, so we had a jolly party, despite my clerical collar! After a mad dash

in a cab from Kings Cross, I arrived at the Abbey with five minutes to spare.

Happily, Canon Jane Sinclair, fresh from the Archdeaconry of Stow, and with whom

I was sharing the service, was delayed by the earlier service, so all was well. I must

write my vow in large letters above the door.

I retired as Rector of this benefice in 2003. Mary Siddans gave us a Rambling

Rector rose, which we planted against the trellis that hides the lower part of our small

garden. It has been prolific over the years, covering the entire trellis with tresses of

long-flowering blooms. Last year we decided to cut it right back, giving us the

opportunity to renew the broken trellis at the same time. Already the new growth has

spread evenly along the trellis, with a promise of splendour ahead.

I have never seen the Flowering Cherry tree in our front garden so laden with

blossom. T S Eliot wrote, “April is the cruellest month”; well, not this year Sonny

Jim.

Caythorpe and District WI

It hardly seems possible but we are almost half

way through our 2015 programme and the May

meeting concentrated on the resolution that our

Treasurer, Pauline Dorey will take with her to

Conference.

In previous years there

are several options on the

table but this year only

one subject: Failure to

Care – an assessment of

the needs of people

seeking long term care. This is an emotive

subject and many opinions were expressed

because everyone at the meeting either had

personal knowledge of someone in our

community who needed the care of others.

Of course, this immediately highlighted the

overall cost of helping and supporting someone

else, and as the population ages so the needs

also increase, and this brings it back to who is

to pay for long term care? It soon became

apparent that the WI, although most people

seem to think we are just a talking shop, are

the voice of local communities and without our

input much of government legislation would be

misdirected and today our voices are a valuable

part of government assessment as to needs of

the elderly and infirm. It was left to Pauline

Dorey, to use a block vote so that Conference

took our wishes into consideration.

On a lighter side Andrew Geeson a caricature

artist, gave us a demonstration into the art –

because it is an art – on how to make someone

look dazzlingly beautiful, or a plain Jane. The

result of this highly entertaining art form is on

show in our WI notice board in the Village Hall

and, please note that we are all very beautiful

members of Caythorpe & District WI.

Great season for Caythorpe Sports and Social Football Club

Well the end of the season is upon us, with just one game left I thought I would give a

brief summary of how the season has gone for us.

Pre-season training started well with plenty of players and new additions to the

management structure. After 4 seasons at Caythorpe, joint manager Ian Batchelor aka

‘Mr Patch’ decided to hang up his boots to spend more time with family

and concentrate on training for swimming and running events he was

entering, his help with running the team has been much appreciated by

myself and I thought he would be missed on the touchline, but he

couldn’t keep away and has supported us at several home games this

season. Garon Harrison stepped up from his playing role in the team to

help run the team and Brian Potts gained promotion from loyal supporter

to Assistant Manager.

Off the pitch Caythorpe Sports & Social Club gave us their usual great

support and sponsorship, we would like to thank all

on the committee for their continued support. Ian

Batchelor and Son Landscapes also gave us a very generous donation

towards team wear and training equipment and Harrison Murray

Estate Agent became our fantastic new kit sponsor. We would like to

thank all our sponsors who without which our club would struggle to

keep going so we are very grateful for their support.

The season started on the pitch in great style, playing our games in The

Arion Grantham & District Sunday League Division 1. We knocked

three Grantham premier league teams out of two cup competitions, beating last year’s

premier league winners Lions FC 6-3 and last year’s premier league runners up

Osbournby Rangers 6-0 in the Charity Shield and in the Knock Out Sup we beat Witham

Wanderers, this year’s Premier league runners up, 3-2. In league games we found

ourselves top early on in the season but after a few injuries and tough games we dropped

to second place behind eventual winners Nobody Inn Reserves. Caythorpe finished

the season in second place with our stats in the league as follows:

Played 18, Won 13, Drawn 2, Lost 3, Goal For 72, Goals Against 20, Points 41.

This sees Caythorpe promoted to the Premier league for next season after finishing

bottom just two seasons ago; this is a massive achievement for all the players and for the

management. We can also boast the league’s top goal scorer in all competitions Tom

‘Figgy’ Figura with 39 goals and the best defensive record in the league with only

twenty goals conceded.

Our final game was the Benny O’Meara Knock-out Cup Final against newly-crowned

Premier League Champions Ropsley. At first it was very even with Caythorpe pressing

hard but ultimately, we lost 5-0. Ropsley ran out deserved winners. This was our first

final since forming eight years ago. It will not be the last.

From Sonia Barron, Rural Dean of Loveden

Making a difference

The story is told of a young man walking along the beach

who sees a great many starfish which had washed ashore.

Walking further down the beach he noticed an old man

walking slowing and stooping down every so often and

picking up and gently throwing each one into the ocean.

“Why are you throwing the starfish into the ocean?” asks

the young man

“Because the sun is up and the tide is going out and if I

don’t throw them further in they will die,” replied the old man.

The young man pointed out that there was miles and miles of beach with lots of starfish

along it and said “you can’t possibly save them all, not even a fraction of them.”

The old man listened calmly to the young man and then bent down, picked up another

starfish and threw it into the sea and said “It made a difference to that one!”

Making a difference is something I think we all want to do, even in the smallest of

ways. For followers of Jesus it is a priority- something we do with the Holy Spirit as our

helper.

UK Premiere of Gaelic

Concert at Leadenham

The Marianus Scottus Ensemble are in

concert in St Swithun’s Church at 6.30pm on

Friday 31st May during Leadenham’s second

Arts Festival.

The Ensemble, from Erfurt and Halle in

Germany, will be performing a concert of

Gaelic music with narration in English, the

UK Premiere of this prestigious new work.

The music in the Marianus Scottus Project

honours the work of the monks in the

medieval period, especially the Irish monks

and those from the Western Isles of Scotland.

In an age where war and pestilence riddled

the social structures throughout Europe, there

were only a few on the side of the bullied,

defenseless and suffering people.

The Hiberno-Scottish mission had reached its

zenith in the 12th century. Within three

centuries all the kings of Europe were now

Christians, and monks were now the relief

between the monarch’s absolute rule and the

people, sharing with them their knowledge of

natural healing and herbal food-growing.

The musical voyage begins with the death of

the great Irish Christian king Brian Boru

when Muiredach mac Robartaigh was born.

He became a monk and bore the name

Marianus Scottus. The story continues with

his life in Ireland, his spiritual journey to

become a monk, his journey to Europe and

the establishment of his cell in Ratisbon as a

fusion of different intellectual

and spiritual currents of his time.

Today, many churches tell of his success as a

"monk of the people” bearing the name

Schottenkirche from Erfurt to Vienna and

Gardeners’ Question Time at Garden Society Meeting

The May meeting took the form of a ‘Gardeners’ Question Time’, with Stuart Dixon of

Radio Nottingham in the chair and John Stirland of Hebbs Farm and society member

Jean Allen making up the panel. As on previous occasions there was a lively discussion

on a variety of gardening topics, interspersed with anecdotes about gardening in the old

days and encounters with TV gardening presenters from the two professionals.

Members brought sick looking plant samples for diagnosis, which included a fungus

disease, physiological problems due to nutrient deficiency and a strangely flattened and

twisted branch showing what is known as fasciation, probably due to a genetic mutation

or virus. Questions included problems with sooty mould (look for aphids or scale

insects making the honeydew that feeds the mould), poorly performing greenhouse

chrysanthemums (feed weekly), and how to tackle an untidy holly tree (prune as

necessary, preferably in early spring). Advice was also given on moving plants and the

importance of choosing the right position according to the plant’s needs.

The relaxed atmosphere combined with practical advice was enjoyed by all. Many

thanks to the panel and the audience for making the evening such a success.

The next two meeting of the society will be garden visits at which, regretfully, we

cannot accommodate visitors.

Our Need to be Vigilant

Sir - I would like to thank all the

parishioners of the North Rural for their

continued support. Their vigilance when

out and about in the local areas. Also

especially to those who report incidents to

the Police when anything suspicious is

happening in your villages.

Please be vigilant of anybody who is

trying to get you to purchase something

you don’t need; for example Tarmacking

your drive, giving personal details over

the phone. My take on these people is if

I wanted my drive done I would get at

least three quotes and pick the best.

I recently received one which was about

someone telling me that I had a problem

with my - computer “WINDOWS” when

I challenged them about this they became

abusive and told me it was a scam.

Also it is getting warmer so please make

sure your house is secure, keep windows

and doors locked. Thanks again.

Lincs. Web www.lincs.police. Charity Clothing Bags

Sir - I read the letter on Clothing Charity

Bag collections in May’s edition of News

and Views.

If you read the small print on most of the

bags that come round they say that the

so-called charitable beneficiary will

receive a specified sum of money per ton

of clothing collected. The latest one, said

to be in aid of the Children’s Air

Ambulance, gives a figure of £105 per

ton.

I appreciate that many of these charities

do not have their own shops and at least

benefit to some extent from our

donations, but I agree with the ‘Local

Resident’ who suggests donating direct to

charitable retail outlets. There are plenty

of those in our nearby towns, and another

easy way to drop items is in the Tickled

Pink collection bins at Asda. Tickled

Pink raises money for both breast cancer

research and patient support, and to date

has contributed over £40m to these

causes.

I have driven past plenty of recycling

shops which offer around 70p, sometimes

more, per kilo, so with 1,000 kilos per ton

the clothing collectors can make upwards

of £700 per ton, and are passing less than

15% of this on to a charity. I am sure

some collectors make far more by sorting

and selling the best items themselves

rather than in bulk.

Residents might also like to know that a

local charity, Candles Lincolnshire, which

raises funds for Professor Eremin’s

cancer research trials at Lincoln County

Hospital and is entirely run by volunteers

so has no administrative overheads, has

opened a shop in Lincoln and would, I am

sure, be delighted to receive good quality

items.

Parish Council News ….June 2015

Annual Parish Meeting …..The meeting was held at the Village Hall on Wednesday

May 13th. A report was received by some six residents which detailed the activities of

the Parish Council during the year to the end of March 2015. If you would like a copy

of the report please do not hesitate to contact either myself or the Parish Clerk.

Parish Council Meeting …..This followed the above meeting with Richard Dix being

appointed as Vice Chairman, Geoff Ashcroft as the Chairman of the Planning

Committee with myself as Chairman of both the Finance Committee and the Parish

Council itself.

The meeting spent a considerable amount of time dealing with the nine planning

applications submitted to LCC by Mid UK Recycling Ltd seeking for their hours of

operation to be extended so as to include ALL Sundays, Bank and other public

holidays.

We are very strongly opposed to any change to their existing hours of operation as

these were put in place some time ago in order to protect the amenity of the

surrounding area. We will by the time that you read this note have submitted our

objection along with many from local residents as well as the Parish Councils of

Fulbeck and Carlton Scroop and Normanton.

The LCC Planning Committee will be meeting to consider this matter on Monday June

8th and we are encouraging as many residents as possible to attend that meeting

(please contact either Geoff Ashcroft or myself for further details) in order to show the

strength of opposition that there is to this proposal.

We are working closely with our County Cllr. Paul Wood and our re-elected District

Cllr. Bob Sampson over this matter as well as keeping Stephen Phillips our MP fully in

the picture.

Highway issues….A some what inconclusive meeting was held with staff from LCC

Highways who whilst recognising the need to under take ongoing repairs were not

receptive to a number of suggestions for improvements that we would like to be made

quoting budget cuts as being the main limiting factor. We will be taking this matter

further with County Cllr. Paul Wood.

Bruce Nelson ……Chairman

Highways, Congestion and Facilties

Sir - As a retiring parish councillor, I

attended the last Parish Council meeting

for the four year period that has just

elapsed. I say, just, but four years is a long

time; it has gone very quickly and in that

time has achieved much for the village.

However, at the start of the meeting when

village parishioners are invited to speak on

village issues, a stark reality was put to the

PC by one parishioner who has supported

the PC at meetings for longer than I can

remember. His first concern was the very

poor the state of the highways within the

parish. Whether you drive, walk or are

assailed by dog-fouling the will and

available finances of the Highways

Division are all important before action is

taken. All the PC can do is keep on liais-

ing with the Highways department and

apply pressure to alleviate these problems.

Secondly, our parishioner was very

disappointed with the congestion on the

High Street. All those in the room backed

his words, some elaborating on the horrors

that this problem creates. The PC has done

nothing in the last four years (and more) to

do anything about this issue – true!

I, myself, would highlight the matter of

affordable housing for the young of this

village. At this level the PC has but little

power, but I would suggest that it is

possible to create some affordable housing

for the village.

I hope that most residents will be aware of

the impending updating of the village plan.

This document is a guide for the PC for

future plans which at the onset has been

approved by the people of the village. It is

a very important document for the people

of Caythorpe and Frieston and written by

the people of Caythorpe and Frieston.

As somebody who has lived in the village

all of my life, I have seen many changes;

the expansion of the villages, in particular

Caythorpe, has been extensive. My first

Caythorpe home was in Templeway Close.

Eastcliffe Square was built about the same

time. Since that time, the Arnhem estate,

Millfield, Craggs Paddock, Kings Hill,

Richmond Close, Waterloo estate, and

Holy Cross Gardens have all been added to

this impressive list.

Now looking back over the Parish plan of

2010 under section 1.4b, Caythorpe and

Frieston are designated a local service

centre. Surely some development could

be directed towards our village for it to

remain a sustainable community. Ah, but

we have just lost a chip shop – what next?

Perhaps it is time we had another injection

of dwellings within the villages - more

people, more sustainable facilities. Our

people in these villages must have a

greater influence on how it develops.

I can see a future development taking place

to the west of Back Lane, in effect joining

the NW corner of Millfields to Loveden

View. To that end, the village should act

first and build a sports facility, village hall,

playing field and car park opposite the

school playing field on Back Lane, thus

reducing the size of the inevitable housing

estate. It would be a good move.

Ultimately, the present playing field could

be sold for housing and the present village

hall turned into starter flats. If you read

that quickly you may think it couldn’t

happen, but it could with the will of a few

people and the backing of the people of

Caythorpe and Frieston.

District Councillors Report

Bob Sampson - 01400 273873 - 07766387872

My thanks to everyone within Loveden Heath Ward for their active support prior to the District

Council elections also to everyone who voted for my re-election. I look forward to serving the

whole community for the next four years.

I apologise if you have had difficulty in communicating with me over the post- election period,

all District Councillors are currently having their email and IT systems upgraded to Wi-Fi status

hence the short period being out of contact. I will shortly be posting my regular contact details

on all village notice boards. I will also be publishing a rota of all my open surgery dates

throughout the Ward alternating between village locations approximately every six weeks.

Just when we thought everything was settled, we now have Lincolnshire County Councils leader

Martin Hill saying” he believes abolishing District Councils could give the County more

bargaining power with the Government” and “such a move could save up to £30million per

year”, in other words we would become a Unitary Authority! What next?

Mid UK Recycling .... I understand that in the matter of the nine Planning Applications submit-

ted by Mid UK Recycling to vary the existing planning conditions relating to weekend and bank

holiday operations are mentioned elsewhere is this issue of News and Views. Please take the

opportunity to record your feelings by going to each of these nine links:

Caythorpe Primary School Celebrates VE Day

On the 8th of May Caythorpe Primary celebrated the 70th anniversary

of VE-day. We

celebrated by

playing games

from the 1940s, a

street party on the school

playground and special assemblies.

We also wrote VE day poetry.

Games we played:

Maypole dancing - Skipping

Pin the flag on UK - Hoops

Tiddlywinks - Egg and spoon

Lindy hop - Shove the penny

French skipping - Hop scotch

We also

listened to

and

watched

clips of VE

day footage

and did the

minute

silence

where we

presented wreaths and put them on our school

cenotaph.

At lunch time we had a traditional street party and we

had our pack lunches and hot dinners on the play-

ground. We also wore red, white and blue and ate a

massive cake made by Mrs Keeble. We made

Union Jack paper chains and all had flags.

Written by Aidan (Year 6)



In and Around the Garden

At last we have had some much needed rain and the garden is looking all the better for

it. The flowering cherry trees have been superb, making a dramatic splash of pink

against the new leaves of the other trees, and on the roadside verges of the High Dyke

there are some beautiful patches of cowslips and bluebells. At home some of the

borders look rather untidy with clumps of leftover bulb foliage all over the place, but it

needs to be left for another few weeks to feed up the bulbs for next year. The area

between the dwarf fruit trees is a picture, however, covered in a froth of white-flowered

honesty. I raised the first plants from seed 3 years ago and they are now well

established and seed themselves around.

I have a few native orchids in the garden and these are just starting to produce their

spikes of bright purple flowers. Whisby nature reserve has a really good display of

them, which should be looking good when you get this magazine, alongside the railway

track on Grebe Walk. Also at Whisby the nightingales are back and singing their

wonderful song, and in the garden baby birds are starting to appear as the first broods

fledge. The robin was first but the tits will not be far behind. The adults are quick to

introduce their young to the easy pickings of the bird feeder, so we get a good view of

the youngsters from the window.

May also brought the return of the lily beetle, an alien invader that will destroy lilies,

fritillaries and other members of the lily family. It was first noticed in Surrey in 1939,

and spread slowly at first but has now been found all over England and as far north as

Aberdeen. Its survival tactics are remarkable: the adults are bright red, warning

colouration that discourages predators, but if this fails they fling themselves backwards

to the ground where their black undersides make them invisible. The larvae are pale

and soft, but they stay on the undersides of the leaves and cover themselves in their

own excreta as both camouflage and defence. Between them the adults and larvae will

strip a lily of all its leaves so vigilance is essential, but as I squash them I marvel at the

clever adaptations that have made them such a successful pest.

The Summer’s Here! It’s Time For Cricket

The Cricket season is now in full swing and as you may have noticed we have had some

rain! Despite the weather interruptions some good cricket has been played by all our

teams.

First Xl have continued their fine start to the season with a convincing win, by 8

wickets, against Old Lincolnians. For Caythorpe James King struck a belligerent 68 in

our total of 156 for 2, surpassing the 153 all out amassed by the Opposition. Our

bowlers shared the wickets, Adrian Graves, Sandy Ireland and our Captain Matt Duncan

each grabbed three, whilst opening bowler Luke Endley picked up one whilst conceding

only 16 runs from nine overs.

The Juniors have enjoyed training sessions on Friday evenings. Each week has seen

more than fifty boys and girls practising, guided by our qualified coaches.

Our Under 15's played Barkston and scored 97 for 5 wickets. Caythorpe then bowled

Barkston out for only 33, with Ben Johnson taking a hat-trick and then a fourth wicket

in one sensational over. He finished with figures of 5 wkts for 3 runs from 2 overs

making an early claim to performance of the season! This Team then played

Bracebridge Heath in the first round of the County Cup (currently held by Caythorpe).

BBH were skittled out for 32, runs easily knocked off by our batsmen.

Moving down the age groups, the under

13's have played two games, winning one.

Nettleham were defeated by 9 wickets,

with Captain Thomas Helliwell top

scoring with 26 not out and also taking 2

wickets. Unfortunately they then suffered

a bruising defeat against Woodhall

Spa but are hoping to win the first round

of their County Cup against Grantham.

Due to rain the Under 11's have only

played one game, beating Collingham

by 14 runs.

The Under 10's have yet to play. For them

it is the first year playing with a hard ball, and to enable the youngsters to receive more

coaching matches are not scheduled for the first weeks of the season.

Lastly our Under 9's have yet to play - but are top of the League! Two of our opponents

conceded games to us as they could not field teams. The third game scheduled was

rained off, but we hope to re-arrange it as it is important the boys and girls play

whenever possible. We were therefore very saddened when Lindum and Collingham

conceded.

Finaly the RAF Coningsby team that we host on Wednesdays started the season in fine

style with a win by 70 runs against RAF Marham from Norfolk.

We are always keen to find new players at all age levels, just come along on Friday

evening for a warm welcome.

New Logo for Carlton Scroop and Normanton Village Hall

Well, we have a NEW Logo! It comprises the very distinctive external outline

shape of our hall along with our blue door, and I’m sure you must agree that

C S & N Village Hall, is a more succinct version of our name!

We now have a Facebook page, so log on and “like” our page, it’s a great way to

make sure you don’t miss out on some of the exciting events we have coming up.

The events this coming season will again include live theatre which was a fresh

venture for us last year. We hosted two live shows, both

were very well supported and the feed-back from those

who attended was so positive, that the committee has bid

for three shows this coming season. The bids all had to

be in by the beginning of May, so now its fingers crossed

that we get allocated the shows that we registered a

preference for. Our choices once again include a drama/

comedy, a children/family show and, a new one for us,

live music.

With your continued support we will be able to host a fantastic, lively programme

of entertainment on your doorstep. All of the live shows are brought to you through

the Lincolnshire Rural Community Touring Program, made possible by funding

from Lincolnshire County & District Councils and from Arts Council England.

A further way that you can support us,

at no cost to you what-so-ever, is to

make your online purchases through a

web-site called “Easyfundraising”. As

a registered charity we have been able

to register with this site where 100’s of

retailers give a donation when you

make a purchase and, trust me…those

pennies do add up! So please do visit

www.easyfundraising.org.uk and sign

up – Happy Shopping! If you have any

queries you can always email us on

Convivial Coffee Mornings raise £1,000 for Charities

For those of you who are not aware, Ann and Edward Russell kindly open up their

home every month, to hold a Coffee Morning in aid of charity.

This month, they are celebrating TWELVE

months fund raising, having started the

coffee mornings in May 2014. They have

managed to raise almost £1000 in total!

The funds raised have supported various

charities, both locally and worldwide,

including mental health, water aid and the

Vanuatu cyclone disaster.

Ann and Edward make everyone feel very

welcome in their beautiful home, and

special thanks must go to them both for all the effort, kindness and support they have

given and continue to give......Long may it continue!

The Coffee Mornings take place at Cobbler's Rise, at 10.30am, on the

second Friday of every month. They are usually well attended, and

thoroughly enjoyed as a pleasant social occasion for members of

Caythorpe Village and other local villages. The next Coffee morning

will be on 12th June at

10.30am. This will be in aid of 'Medical

Aid for Palestinians'. Israeli forces have

destroyed the El Wafu hospital and the

situation is desperate.

The last Coffee Morning in aid of

Alzheimer's Research raised £65, a

good effort as numbers were down. This

time of year is busy but we do welcome

anyone who has the time to drop in, so see

you in June!
