Letters to the Editors
Motor bikes
Dear Editors,
Are the people driving motorbikes around the Primary school the same ones as those in Dencora Field?
Macmillan Cancer Relief Coffee Morning
Dear Editors,
Thank you very much to everybody who contributed in any way to Swaffham Prior's part in the World's Biggest Coffee Morning. You were so generous with donations, home-made cakes and raffle prizes that we raised £560.53p. It was a tremendous effort and I am very grateful to you all for your support. All the money that we raise at the Coffee Mornings goes to local Macmillan services. In the 11 years that I have been hosting the coffee mornings we have all raised over £4,000 which I think is a wonderful achievement for a small village! The date for the coffee morning next year is Friday 30th September. I look forward to seeing you all again then!
Parochial Charities Grant
Dear Editors,
Once again it is time to remind all who consider themselves eligible for our Christmas grant that they should apply as soon. as possible. As usual, the majority of these applications will come from our pensioners, particularly those who have to manage on the basic state pension, but if you are in particular need, or know of anybody who may be in difficulty, but is unlikely to apply on their own behalf the Trustees will always be happy to consider requests for assistance.
Applications should be sent to me, or to any Trustee, and I stress that this assistance is available at all times, not merely at Christmas.
Eds Note: Correspondents - please remember we can't publish letters if we don't know who they're from! We appreciate some older residents have an antipathy for the limelight and if you don't want us to publish your name, just put "Please don't print my name" underneath your signature and contact number. In this case, we can't guarantee to publish your letter, but at least we can tell you why not! If this month's "Resident of SP" will contact us, we'll print their letter next month.
