Church Cleaning—Please Help! This is not an onerous task now—so keep reading! We require some more helpers to dust, tidy & wipe fingermarks off glass doors etc in our Chapel and main Church building.
We work in pairs usually on Fridays, and you take your turn about every 5—6 weeks. It takes no more than an hour,
being a spruce up so everything is looking good for Sunday. The main cleaning is done by commercial cleaners on Mondays.
Please see Gill Cranch, or phone her on 428 1686
