Thank you to all of you to everyone who has donated your time and money to support the week. I will let you  know the total we made for our village as soon as I know but the money is still coming in. We had a Plant Sale  raising the magnificent sum of £610. It proved very popular attracting many villagers and keen gardeners on the Rectory Lawn enjoying a social event. Robina.
