The parish walking group enjoyed a lovely walk on the Lanchester way this morning. The group usually holds walks on the 3rd Saturday of every month with new walkers always welcome! If you are interested in joining look out for details in the parish bulletin.






Our next walk will be a 4 to 5 mile stretch of the Lanchester Railway Path next Saturday 21st , meeting at St. Joseph’s car park at 10am to share transport. A relatively short and gentle walk on flat well surfaced footpaths to get us started off in the New Year! Refreshment facilities available at end of walk. Gillian Macarthur has kindly agreed to lead this walk. Thank you, Gillian.
