| GIVING IN FAITH GROUP Vintage Fair – Advance Notice Saturday 9 August The Giving in Faith group is putting on a sale of vintage items on Saturday 9 August in the Chapter House. We would appreciate donations of good quality vintage items to sell: clothes, jewellery, shoes, household items, anything vintage (not electrical items). Google defines vintage as ‘between 20 and 100 years old’, so that’s a broad definition! Please let Jane Jones, or any member of the Giving in Faith team, know if you have items to donate but please keep them until nearer the sale before you hand them over, as storage space is limited. Many thanks Jane Jones |
