Campervan Storage Needed

I’m looking for somewhere to store my VW camper van off road over the winter (under cover would be brilliant but not essential) and am happy to negotiate a sensible fee for doing so. Any offers or ideas grateful received.

Church Harvest Festival – Sunday 15 October

Come to the Church Harvest Festival – Sunday 15 October 9.30 am

All will be most welcome at the Family Service on Sunday celebrating this year’s harvest.  Although most of us only get close to the harvest on our walks or through the car windows, we are a farming community.  As Brexit bites this will become an ever more important activity, and we thank our farmers for their management and husbandry of the land.

The collection on Sunday will be donated to the Stroud Food Banks service, and produce donated will be passed on to the Beresford Trust which supports women in need.

We will serve mid-morning refreshments for those who are able to stay after the service.
