Stoodleigh 100 Club Donation

 

St Margaret's recent Afternoon Tea provided a great opportunity for villagers to get together to enjoy delicious home- baked cakes, scones, cucumber sandwiches and good company.

Thank you to our hosts for the lovely afternoon and also to the volunteer bakers.

Stoodleigh 100 Club was able to formally make its donation of £250 each to Stoodleigh Parish Hall and St Margaret's Church ...... photo above, cheques presented to Church and Hall treasurers by the 100 Club administrator.

Big thanks to the Stoodleigh 100 Club members who make this donation possible. Of course, membership also offers a chance for members to have some fun and be in with a monthly chance of winning.

The year started in May so the current year is nearly half way through .... but don't let that stop you from joining up ... please see full details about how you can join the fun and help to support our Church and Hall!

Village volunteers prepare site for Church & Playground wall re-build 

Over a couple of recent weekends, a village working party started the preparations for a re-build of the wall between the Churchyard and Playground. The volunteers cleared the vegetation and the stone was put aside to be re-used. A digger was brought in so that the remaining part could be dug away to ground level. Thanks to Geoffrey, John, Julian, Mandy and Richard for their hard work - pictured below.

Stoodleigh Community Help Network:  Update

The Stoodleigh Community Help Network continues to be on hand should our neighbours need assistance!

Since April 2020 and during the coronavirus pandemic several residents in our parish volunteered to support their neighbours by helping with everyday necessities. Our community is great at offering help to one another under normal circumstances so the group were able to provide an extra back-up.

The group offering their support to people in the community will continue to be available should residents need help at particular times with necessities like shopping and collecting prescriptions, etc.

Stoodleigh residents, please remember, if you need some help, or know someone in our parish who might need some support, please let us know.

You can email stoodleighweb@gmail.com and we will do our best to put you in touch with one of our volunteers.
