THE autumn fair will be held on Saturday, November 9 in our hall this year instead of St Katherine's. It will be from 9.30am to 11.30am and all offers of items for sale will be much appreciated.

Radio Hereford & Worcester will be broadcasting a Service of Remembrance at 7am on Sunday morning. It was recorded in Christ Church last Monday and the PCC would like to thank everyone who came and swelled the choir. It was interesting to see how these programmes are made and to our credit that only one recording was needed! The service will be a nice link with our Memorial Hall and those local men who gave their lives. The programme is rather early in the morning but do switch on!

The classes and courses in the hall are going well and provided there is sufficient support arrangements will be made to offer the following subjects in the New Year: Day time aerobics and Pilates fitness continuing with Joy Pearson (01432) 820484; Bridge 1 & 2 on Mondays with Neville Shorrick (01531) 633475; a nine week computer course for beginners, contact as above; flower arranging, a daytime course, please contact Ann Walker (01531) 632376; the painting and drawing classes will hopefully continue on Monday evenings and prospective students should ring Elaine Bentley on (01684) 892532. Closing date for enrolments is December 6.

There will be a talk in the hall on Friday, November 15 by Brian Draper called What is a River? Brian has talked to us before and his knowledge and enthusiasm for local rivers make his talks well worth hearing.

Remembrance Sunday, November 10. Normal family service will be held at 9.30am in Christ Church, followed by a Service of Remembrance in the Memorial Hall at 10.30am.
