25 November 2021 - Mission Hall Committee Members needed; Scout Jumble Sale; SP Coffee Morning
Dear all,
The Sutton Poyntz Mission Hall Trust Management Committee is seeking to appoint a new Treasurer and Secretary. The Committee is responsible for the running and maintenance of the Hall on behalf of St Andrews Church Preston PCC. The Mission Hall is a popular and well used amenity at the heart of the village, and the Committee would welcome new members with an interest in running this important and vital community asset. If you are interested in joining the Committee in either of these roles, please contact Anthea Heathershaw (Chair) on 01305 834375.
Some news about the Scout Jumble Sale that was held in the Scutt Hall a little while ago. I am pleased to be able to report that the sum of nearly £560 was raised which will go towards maintaining the Hall for use by local Scouts and Guides. From memory, this is the largest sum collected to date and thanks are due to those who organised the event, all those who so generously contributed articles for sale and of course those who turned up on the day to purchase those articles.
And from an event past to one in the future. The next Coffee Morning will be on Friday 3 December in, as ever, the Mission Hall. This is your monthly chance to gather for a chat on important matters of the moment over a warming – and that’s needed with the present cold wind – cup of tea or even coffee accompanied by a piece of welcome homemade cake. On this occasion it will be a charity event, with cash donations invited instead of the usual £3 entrance fee which will go to the Weymouth Foodbank. Do drop in and support this worthy cause, always needed but especially at this time of year.
Take care
Chris
