We had a good weekend celebration at St John’s in July on the theme of “Our beautiful world” . Many thanks to everyone who loaned us exhibits ranging from paintings and embroidery to photography.
Next year our weekend will be two weeks before the village fete – in mid-June, and it will have a historical slant again. If you have anything, especially artefacts, which we could borrow we would love to exhibit them!
Two of our lovely residents, Jules and Barbara, have decided to open up the hall to a Macmillan Coffee Morning from 10-12 on Friday 27th September. Do please come and support this extremely worthy cause. Any donations of cake or assistance extremely welcome, please contact juleseyles@gmail.com.
The Hort Soc Annual Show is upon us and will take place in the Village Hall on Sat 14th September from 2.30pm. As always Tea, Coffee, Homemade Cakes and chat will be available. If you are entering an exhibit set up is from 9.30am to 11am.
Why not indulge your competitive streak and enter an exhibit? As well as Fruit, Vegetables and Flowers, there are classes in Cookery, Photography and Crafts, as well as many Children’s classes.
All are welcome to come and view the exhibits from 2.30 onwards, but for a schedule for exhibits and membership information contact Nicola Parkes on 07973 558675 or email nikijparkes@gmail.com

But here’s a sneak preview… Autumn is here and with it a packed programme for September – from the Hort Soc show to Harvest Service and Supper at St John’s Church.
Its been a busy summer for Bellingdon & Asheridge residents — with the fete, two separate dance festivals at the hall, the Summer weekend at the church and much more. Reports on some of the goings on inside!
We must congratulate Bellingdon resident Dan Eckersley on his selection for the England U18s Rugby team. Dan travelled to South Africa with the team, where they played three matches against Argentina, France and South Africa. Well done Dan!
September is looking extremely busy and we hope, particularly, to see as many people as possible at the Macmillan Cancer Support coffee morning on 27th September from 10-12 in the hall. This is an extremely worthy cause and who can turn down a piece of cake and a cuppa?
