Holy Cross Church in Gilling have arranged for John Ashton to give a talk on Climate Change. John Ashton was formerly a Government Advisor to the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office so it’s a good opportunity to hear at first hand what he has to say. There’s also an ecumenical exhibition on climate change planned too. This important issue of our time is likely to be of interest to residents of Slingsby, Fryton and South Holme.
