Our
events team are planning the last big fundraiser for the Bells Appeal. The
Barnham Broom Village Summer Fete will be at the Mill House on Sunday 19th
August 2018 1pm to 5pm. If there are any local clubs, associations, crafts or stall
holders that would like to join us, please contact bbbells.appeal@gmail.com to
book a stall at the fete.
There
will be stalls, games, cakes, refreshments, a Beer Tent, BBQ, Bouncy Castle and
more. Please do come and join us.
The
Events team are also continuing their work under the direction of the Parish
Council on fundraising events that will benefit the village. After a
successful Quiz Night at the Village Hall in March that raised £295 towards the
Memorial Garden, the next event will be Afternoon Tea and Open Garden at Home
Farm on Saturday 23rd June.
A group of
volunteers are working to produce a re-enactment of the history of the Church
and bells. If you would like to get involved in any way, such as with scenery,
props, costumes or general help, please contact bbbells.appeal@gmail.com. The
re-enactment will take place on Saturday 6th October, in the Church. Watch for
more details nearer the time.
Our
sincere thanks once again to all who continue to help and support us. We have
had a recent boost to our funds from the taxman in the form of a VAT refund. So
our fund, which includes money in hand, money already spent and grants
promised, now stands at less than £5000 away from our £74,000 target.
