The first is John Carrick's Fireworks Evening on Saturday 8 November. Pay on the gate.
The second is the Friends' annual quiz on Saturday, 15 November.Teams will consist of a maximum of four people, but smaller teams are welcome to enter and we will help you to make up the numbers if you wish.

Church and Tower Open Day 2014
The Church and Tower held an open day today. The were a number of exhibitions in the church showing the different groups and who use the church, a number of which were manned by members of those groups. There was of the course the delicious refreshments available which many of the visitors took advantage of! The Bell Ringers of All Saints conducted Tower Tours throughout the day giving people the chance to watch ringing take place as well as take a look at the 6 bells of All Saints.
Although there wasn't as many people as we would have liked to have seen those who did come commented on how beautiful the church was and how it was lovely t be able to come in a take a look as they had passed it so often. Many people were also drawn to the day to take a look at the bells and find out what goes on to make the beautiful sound they love to listen to on Fridays and Sundays. A few even said they would like to come along and have a go at ringing.

The Friends - The Great Village Yard Sale
The Friends of All Saints would like to thanks all those who took part in The Great Village Yard Sale on Saturday 12 July.
This was a very successful day, the weather was kind and everyone seemed to have a good time. There were 37 individual yard sales throughout the village and the total profit, all of which goes to the Restoration Fund for the church was £450.
In addition, there were stalls in the church, including teas, which raised a further £217. Many thanks to all who kindly made the refreshments and manned the stalls.
Our thanks also to all the "Yards" who took part and we hope you all had an enjoyable/profitable day.
Our special thanks to the Village Shop and Swanton Morley Butchers for kindly selling the maps.
