The Friends of
April News Letter
At a
recent Committee meeting we were given approximate
figures for the work required to install toilets for the
disabled, improve the entrance for the disabled and to
install a lift. A figure of £70,000 to £75,000 has been
quoted, final figures are still awaited.
With this
in mind we have planned a few events over the next few
months. The first of which is a variety evening to be
held on Saturday 16th April starting 7.30 p.m.,
at St Philip’s Church, at which there will be
various acts such as dance, singing and recitals. It is
hoped that a few numbers from Joseph will be included.
There will be a retiring collection.
Our next
event will be the May Fair on Monday 2nd May,
help and ideas for stalls are most welcome. On the 25th
June there will be an evening with a group of singers
called “Just Deserts” who perform favourites
from musicals such as Pirates of Penzance, Les Miserable
etc., again to be held at St Philip's Church. Candlelit
supper at the Centre on the 9th July, weather
permitting this will be “al fresco”, menu will
be available closer to the 9th, and on the 30th
July tombola stall at the River Festival.
We very
much hope that you, your friends and relatives will come
along and support us at one or more of the above events.
The sooner we can raise the £75,000 the quicker work can
commence and improve facilities at the Church and Centre.
We look
forward to seeing you at one of the above events. Many
thanks for your continued help and support.
