Getting involved: 5th April 2026

Activities

 

• Sapling Saturday, an informal and friendly working party undertaking maintenance work in the churchyard. 2nd & 4th Saturdays, 9.30 - 11am followed by coffee and cake. April dates are Saturdays 11th and 25th.

​

• Churchyard memorial recording project. Can you volunteer? Our project to record all the memorials in the churchyard is progressing well, however we’re looking for a volunteer to help with adding the details into an excel spreadsheet. This will mean that information about our churchyard can be uploaded to a national database which will make the records fully searchable. If you think you may be able to help with inputting our record sheets to a spreadsheet, or would like to know more about what this involves, we’d love to hear from you. This is a role that could be shared amongst a couple of people. Thank you in anticipation Nick Stephenson & Andy Buchan (andybuchan595@gmail.com)
