Garden Party – September Diary

The Garden Party at the Beehive originally arranged for July 17th was postponed due to the weather until September 4th. However, it is now apparent that very few of the people who usually help to operate the event are able to be present.

So reluctantly the event is now being cancelled. September 4th is now certain to be a lovely sunny day.

Shop News – September Diary

Thanks and congratulations to Ashley Spendlove as he leaves us on Sept 18 to take his place at University. He has been a very reliable, steadfast and cheerful Sunday shop worker and filler-in at other times. Thanks and congratulations too to George Tyler who has helped us in the shop
here and there and now moves on to University. We will miss you both!

Darcie Collington and Jess Bevan-Beirne will take over the Sunday shift between them so two new smiling faces to greet you as they start regular work in the shop.

We need more help – we want to build up our volunteer group more to cope with the many demands of the shop. We are asking for two hours a fortnight which can be in the mornings (11-1) or in the afternoons (3-5) or even the 5.30-6.30 shift on a Friday.

Jen (sister of current volunteer Lucy) is starting this month and Maurice (recently moved into Rose Cottage) in Sept.
Thanks so much to them. Can you help too?! Please see Nikki in the shop (8.30-11) weekdays.
