It is with heartfelt gratitude that we thank all of the volunteers from our small village that work so hard throughout the year to keep All Saints looking so beautiful for our parishioners and visitors.

Zoe takes time to organise a zealous team of gardeners who organise a rota throughout the year to mow our Churchyard. This year they put in the groundwork for a wildflower area, which will be developed over the coming years and will be a joy to discover what beauty grows there.  Soon they will be gathering the troops for their Autumn working party, a time for clearing up after the summer and maintaining over the coming winter months. A happy time to share together in the fresh Exmoor air with gin and tonics and lunch!

Angela has kindly rallied a group of lovely villagers to help bring a living soul to the church with their pedestals and swags of fresh flowers. Sometimes  alone in the tranquility of our ancient sanctuary reflecting and other times as a group, chatting and giggling 🤭 

Once in a while volunteers take down light shades and don dusters to clean away the country cobwebs. Balancing on ladders and stretching up to the highest pinnacle of the bell tower all is made sparkling and new.

Thank you all for your time and generosity…. You keep us going…. Bring life and light to our ancient building… and enable the church to remain part of our special community.
