After this morning’s church service, our church family came together to sing a big Happy Birthday to Peter.

Peter shared that 67 years ago yesterday, he married his beloved late wife, Monica, in this very church, making it an especially meaningful week as he celebrates his 97th birthday.

Peter continues to be an inspiration to us all. The fact that he was out cutting his own lawn on his birthday is remarkable! He should be very proud of himself.

Happy 97th Birthday, Peter – we wish you a wonderful year ahead.

Bob Harris - A huge happy birthday, you are one of the best humans around. We love you to bits ……

Bin a Tin 🥫💛

As the school holidays come to an end, food bank supplies are running very low.

If you’re able to “bin a tin” — even just one item — it can make such a wonderful difference to local families in need. Every donation counts and is hugely appreciated.

Thank you so much for your continued support and kindness 💛

We are extremely grateful to Clive & Linda Edmonds for donating £150 from their driveway plant sale to the FOLC Path Project. This was incredibly generous, and we sincerely thank you for all the time and effort you put into it.

Many people enjoyed stopping by for a chat, and Clive kindly shared his knowledge and expertise with everyone involved. Thank you both once again for your kindness, support, and contribution to the project.

We still have some lovely surplus plants available to purchase on Tina’s drive at Hope Cottage, The Latchen. Longhope

There is an honesty donation box there, so please help yourselves! If we can raise a few more pennies from the extra sales, that would be amazing and all helps towards the project. 💚

Thank you again for all your support!

Today’s plant sale was a roaring success! 🌿☀️

Firstly, a huge thank you to our lovely village for all your generous donations and support. Special thanks also to Fairview Nursery and Willow Stone & our lovely Joan Cross for their wonderful generosity.

We are absolutely delighted to share that we made a staggering £1162 profit, which will go towards our “Path Project”.

A special thank you also to Cllr Clive Williams, who donated several established Blaisdon Plum Trees, with all proceeds going to us. This not only helped raise funds, but it was also lovely to hear that five trees will be planted in Longhope, helping to keep the history of the local plum alive.

It was such a lovely community morning filled with sunshine, happy smiles, coffee & cake, and scrummy bacon rolls! ☕🍰🥓

Thank you all so much for your continued support — we couldn’t do it without you! 💚
