We are thankful……………..

All at St Cuthbert’s are enormously grateful to Mr Richard Holland for his work in organising the upgrade of our path through the memorial garden in memory of his dear wife Dorothy. This work has been completed at no cost to St Cuthbert’s thanks to the generosity of the civil engineering company Westshield and Richard. It has greatly improved that area of the Churchyard which leads into the new burial ground, Woodland View. Huge thanks to all involved.

Butterfly and Bees Group (the B’s) & Halsall Proud and Tidy

If you have the opportunity to spend some time in our gardens please take a moment to have a look at some of the changes that have been made by the B’s group of volunteers to encourage wildlife into the area and to provide safe havens for some of our more vulnerable little creatures. We have hedgehog houses and natural habitat piles with little drinking spots, a planting scheme is in progress of more pollinating plants and lots of bulbs. This last summer saw the first showing of our new wildflower area which was seeded by the group earlier in the year and which was amazing. The group is led by Clare Edwards and she and her husband Connor have done an amazing job both in the church grounds and in other areas around the village. Thank you so much Clare, Connor and all the volunteers who have helped!

The village Proud and Tidy group have also been working hard around the village and in and around the Church grounds. This group is led by Eleanor Wroe and Enid Banks and many of you will see Brian Lloyd and other volunteers carrying out a whole host of jobs keeping our village neat and tidy. Thank you to every one of them!

Please visit the Church Services page for the current months regular services and find below advance notice of our December itinerary.
