Are you feeling at a loose end after the excitement of Christmas and New Year’s Eve? Grey skies getting you down? All the more reason to come and join your fellow villagers for this week’s events (and if you know someone who’s on their own or doesn’t see online alerts, do encourage them to come along too.) There will be plenty more going on in Dallington in 2023 so keep an eye out for future announcements.
- On Friday 6th January:
It’s your last chance to see our lovely Christmas tree festival in St Giles Church. Join us for coffee and home made cake or other refreshments from 10am, followed by a short service celebrating Epiphany – the visit of the wise men to Jesus. (And afterwards, any volunteers to help dismantle the Christmas decorations in the church would be gratefully received).
Please note that the date given in the parish magazine and Messenger (Thursday 5th January) is incorrect. Our apologies if this causes you a diary clash but we hope to see you on Friday.
- On Saturday 7th January:
Library Café from 10am to 12 noon in the Old School Village Hall. Do bring any books that you no longer wish to keep and browse our bookshelves for replacements, or just have a chat with neighbours over tea, coffee and homemade cake or other refreshments.
It’s the 150th anniversary this month of the opening of the hall extension, now the Billiard Room, so you can also take part in a free competition to see how many balls you can pot in 10 minutes (no previous experience needed!)
- Sunday 9th January:
6.30pm Evensong in St Giles Church - Monday 11th January (and every Monday)
Art Club 10-12, Old School Village Hall
Library Café 2-4pm, Old School Village Hall
