We will be bringing back an old village tradition for all the community!  During the week 8th to the 16th June 2019 at Holy Trinity Church and around Great Paxton village.  Competitions, music, history show, floral displays, maypole dancing and lots lots more.

Why not have a try at drumming?  You know you have always wanted to!  A great activity for children in the holidays.

After the success of the celebrations in the village last November for the centenary of WW1 we hope to get your support for this new project.  We would like to create a very special bunting, composed of many lengths that can be used by and for the village at any future events.  The idea is for as many of you as possible to make from one to multiple triangles which will then be sewn together to create the lengths.  The size of triangles will always be the same but so long as it is weatherproof the rest is up to you.  Perhaps you can commemorate a birth or a marriage or even your name.....it's only limit is your skill level and imagination!!  Come and join 'The Crafting Bells' every 4th Monday evening of the month at 7.00pm at The Bell.  Full details and pattern sizes will be available at the meetings......we look forward to seeing you there.

Villagers are being offered the opportunity to sponsor a pew seat pad and have it designed to commemorate a personal or family occasion.  The craft group, The Crafting Bells, have applied for a grant to help with most of the cost but whilst waiting for that to be confirmed, they will be able to start the massive task ahead by starting on the personalised ones.

A member of the group who is adept in both tapestry and design will work with villagers to discuss what they would like to show on their cushion.  We are looking at this project to help create warmth and comfort in Holy Trinity Minster Church, Great Paxton, for both congregation and visitors alike.  It will be a great improvement for the events that will continue to be held in the church.

ANYONE is welcome to come and join the group which will meet every 4th Monday evening of the month from 7.00pm until 9.00pm at The Bell Pub, Great Paxton.

Call Diane James on 07522 449535 for a chat about sponsoring a tapestry pew seat pad or if you would like further information.
