Christmas Theatre Trip 2017
Carol Singing in Garvald
Carol-singing round the village will be held on Sunday 17th December. Meet outside the pub at 5pm, Mince-pies and mulled wine afterwards at The Old Schoolhouse.
ALL WELCOME – wrap up warm.
We are not raising money for anything – just carol-singing for the fun of it and the spreading of Festive cheer!
Please be kind and crack open your door to give us an audience. We promise not to stay long in any one place!
Sleep in the Park Fundraiser
Lorraine and Caroline would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who sponsored them to Sleep in the Park on Saturday night. They survived the temperatures of -6C and raised more than £1500. Lorraine’s nursing colleagues raised about the same again. Robin Bellamy and Conal McGregor from Garvald also participated and raised money.
The BBC reported on the fundraising event which was held last Saturday night. This mission to eradicate homelessness in Scotland is being driven by the inspirational Josh Littlejohn and his company Social Bite. His story is definitely worth a read.
