St Mary's church is hosting a 'VE Day 80th Anniversary' event.
On the 8th May at St Mary's church, Throckley; for anyone who would like to spend some time in quiet reflection as our nation commemorates the end of war in Europe.
There will be a display of wartime memories from some of our residents, and we hope to have some photos of people who served in the war, together with a photo of any medals they received.
If you have any family photographs or medals you would like displayed please contact Margaret Ledger.
The Community Singing Group will start on the 10th February and continue fortnightly after that.
We are an informal group who sing for our friendships and wellbeing.
Please come along and join us, we will have tea and coffee, chats, giggles and plenty of singing!
All ages and abilities welcome.
Sessions are held at St Mary's church, Throckley.
