A Good Mardle

There was a good turn-out for this morning's first "Community Coffee Morning" in the Vestry of the Chapel.

More than twenty people turned up for tea, coffee, cake and a good chat. No post-office services of course, but everybody enjoyed the good company.

Thanks must go to the organisers, Kathryn Luton and Jean Whipps.

Another session is booked for next Thursday morning, April 7th, and it is hoped that it will become a weekly event.

Parish Meeting Announced

The Covid Emergency meant that the 2020 and 2021 Annual Parish Meetings could not take place.

Better news for 2022. The Parish Council have announced that this year's Parish Meeting will be held at the Village Hall on Tuesday May 10th at 7 pm. Further details of the agenda etc. will appear in due course.

Support for Ukraine

The large turn-out at the Village Hall yesterday morning clearly demonstrated Denton residents' concerns about the situation in Ukraine and their desire to offer support to those suffering under the Russian invasion.

The proposal to hold a fund-raising Coffee Morning was only announced on Wednesday afternoon, but people quickly rallied round to stock a massive book sale, provide a wonderful range of cakes and donate some excellent raffle prizes.

The result was a very convivial gathering but, more important, it raised no less than £1,180 to go to the Disasters Emergency Committee. Well done the organisers and everybody who contributed.

UPDATE - Total raised now up to £1,500.
