Many Hands ....

St Michael's church is fortunate in having a recently redecorated church, surrounded by a picturesque churchyard with lawn and mature trees.  The church is even more fortunate in having a number of willing groups that help to maintain it in this condition - groups which are always keen to welcome new help, on either a regular or one-off basis.

Church Cleaners

The Church Cleaners gather every Friday morning to ensure that everything is spick and span before the weekend services.

Grass Cutters

The Grass Cutters are grouped in a number of teams which use motor mowers to look  after the grassed area around the church.  Mowing days are usually Fridays, weather permitting.

Church Working Parties

These get-togethers are organised every month or so to cope with a variety of maintenance jobs that need doing inside or outside the church, cleaning windows, trimming hedges, cleaning leaves out of gutters, gardening in the cloister garden, maintaining paths, keeping down weeds around the church, and so on.

Church Working Parties are on Saturday mornings, between 09:00 and 13:00.  Please refer to the church calendar for specific dates.  

More information can be obtained via the Parish Office, but if you simply turn up while the work is in progress, you can be sure of a warm welcome.
