Parish Christmas Card - Some of you may remember that some years ago in Clent, we produced a Parish Christmas card. So instead of posting or sharing lots of cards, one was printed in the parish magazine and if you wanted your family name to be included, you made a donation. This donation was then split between three or four charities. We thought we might give this another try this year and include the residients of Hagley and Clent. So if you’re interested please get in touch with Bonnie Harvey – bonnieharvey121@gmail.com for more details. The card would then be available in the December issue of Contact which is available at St Leonard’s, St Saviour’s, St John’s and the Clent Connect shop £1.00

Advent Lunch: Final payments are now due please – Gill Richards.
