1000 Years, 1000 Voices

To celebrate a church being at the site of All Saints’ Sandon for 1000 years, we are running a series of events to recognise the passage of history during that time and the role of local people in the life of the church over the ages. Details of these can be found in our events pages and they start with a Quiz at Sandon Parish Room on Friday 23 January at 7.30. We are grateful to the Dog and Doublet for donating a prize for the Quiz.

We then get going with our series of Knit and Natter Groups to be held at the Greyhound at Burston starting at 1.30 until 3.00 on Thursday 29 January and continuing each fourth Thursday through the year. Our aim is to knit 1000 poppies for Remembrance. We are grateful to the Greyhound for the use of a room at their pub. Details of the knitting patterns can be found on the events page.

On 21 February we will hold a Down Memory Lane day at the Sandon Parish room from 10.00 to 4.00. Drop in to share your memories of the local area and the church, perhaps bring photos or an object from the past. We will be launching our Time Capsule project the same day.

Watch this blog and our Events pages for more details of these free events through the year.
