St Giles Bielby 100 Club

 Friends of St Giles Bielby 100 Club

The Friends of St Giles Bielby 100 Club, a monthly draw with cash prizes, has been an important source of income for supporting the running of the Church, which continues to be challenging, especially with the increasing costs that we are all experiencing.

Bronwen Martin will be calling round shortly to renew subscriptions and sign up new members. Tickets are £13 per annum and can be paid by cash, cheque and by direct payment online.

We’re very grateful for the continued support from the Village, without which the future of the Church would be very uncertain.

Best wishes,

Steve Smith
Treasurer, St. Giles Bielby PCC

Jean Johnson

Tim, Sandra and Alan would like to thank everyone for the many cards and messages of sympathy received on the very sad loss of Jean.

Thanks also to everyone who attended the funeral and for the donations to St Giles Church, Bielby & Yorkshire Cancer Research which amounted to £305.

Once again thank you. 

Getting Jubilee Barn Ready

A few of us are starting to sweep and prep the barn this weekend after 1pm on Saturday. If anyone is free and wants to pop down that is great. If you have a sweeping brush that is great. Once it's swept we can start to get the tables and chairs in and hang the flags/ bunting. 

We can start bringing the chairs and tables from Sunday, we will be here Sunday. 

Then we will continue decorating the barn on Wednesday and Thursday. 

So if anyone can help just let Sara know when you are free. I've already heard from some villagers so thank's for that.

Looking forward to celebrating together. 

Jubilee Event Info

Hi all,

Well the jubilee is getting closer. Can you let us know if you are vegetarian, vegan or gluten free.

I know some of you have already let us know so thanks for that. 

Also if you have kindly offered to make a traybake, thank you very much. Can you let us know if it has nuts in it as we do have a villager with a nut allergy. Thank you.

I have printed onto card some jubilee bookmarks and also some colouring sheets and wordsearches, so if you are bringing children can you pop some felt tips or pencil crayons in your bag, thank you.

Barn preparations. I will be sweeping the barn out on Wednesday 1st June, from Wednesday afternoon you can bring your tables and chairs down to the barn. We will be decorating the barn Thursday and Friday. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

The committee have a meeting this Tuesday so I'll post any more details after then. 

Garden Area Around The Seat Planted Up

Thanks to all the help from Francis, Jan and Paul we now have a lovely garden area around the seat opposite the church.  

Not forgetting David Geekie who donated some edging stones to finish the borders off.

Thanks everyone and enjoy! 

ERYC home insulation scheme.

 With inflation and fuel prices rocketing, it makes sense to insulate our homes as well as we can. I received the following flyer from ERYC today. Web address is https://heat-insulation.co.uk/99-scheme/
