A huge thank you to everyone who helped make last week's Church Fête such a wonderful success.

We were certainly blessed with glorious weather, and it was lovely to see so many people enjoying the afternoon. Whether you came along to browse the stalls, buy a bargain, enjoy something to eat and drink, try your luck on the games, or simply spend time with friends and neighbours, thank you for being part of such a special community event.

Our heartfelt thanks also go to everyone who worked so hard behind the scenes and on the day itself—organising, setting up, running stalls, serving refreshments, donating prizes and goods, clearing away afterwards, and supporting the event in countless other ways. We simply couldn't do it without you.

We're delighted to say that, with the final coin count still to be completed, we've think we have raised around £3,000 (from the fete and associated donations). Every penny will help support the work and ministry of St Anne's, and we are incredibly grateful for your generosity.

Thank you once again to everyone who came, helped, donated, spent, ate, drank, volunteered and supported us. We hope you had as much fun as we did, and we look forward to welcoming you again next year!
