ALL SAINTS’ SPONSORED PARACHUTE JUMP

Chrysa Apps, Treasurer to All Saints’ Slingsby, writes:

“We are delighted and very grateful to announce that Paul and Rachel Hogarth are very generously doing a sponsored parachute jump in aid of funds for our lovely church. This is to take place at Bridlington Airfield on Saturday 19th August.
All Saints has become a loved community resource for the village and not just a place for worship. The recent music and wine in the churchyard in June was a great success attended by over 50 people of all ages.
We are asking that you consider sponsoring Paul and Rachel. This can be done by a donation to me at Orchard Cottage, Railway Street or the donations box at the back of the church (if you can gift aid this I can supply an envelop or collect one from the church) or by using the Just Giving web site – a link will be available soon”.

The Just Giving link will be published here on the village website once we have it.
