We are having a bit of a social from 5.30pm 'til dusk.

Bring your children and your friends. Dogs very welcome too. 

Come and enjoy a glass of something, a few nibbles and a walk through the churchyard to consider what's working well and what could do with a bit more love. Perhaps whilst you are there, enjoying this surprisingly sociable space, you'd like to share your thoughts or be inspired over something you could take on.
