FITNESS CLASSES: Numbers are down for Tina’s Over-50s Fitness Class from 2 – 3 on Tuesdays. This was very popular when it started last year. Why not pop into the hall on Tuesday and see what it’s all about. Exercises are graded so that you can do as much or as little as you choose – and there is no age limit.

PEASMARSH BROWNIES: The Brownies are still seeking another “owl”. If you would think you could help, please contact Diane Nunn on 07981 975377 or [email protected]

BINGO : Despite interest in regular Bingo sessions in the hall in answer to all previous questionnaires, there was a woefully small turnout on Monday 29. We need more people to come and enjoy a light-hearted couple of hours on a Monday afternoon with Trevor’s adept “calling”, sound effects from Pauline, a raffle organised by Marie in aid of the hall, and tea and biscuits. The next 2 dates are October 13 and 27.

HALL SALES: There are two big sales in the hall this month - a Flea Market and sale of Collectables on the morning of Sunday October 19, and a Grand Jumble Sale on Saturday October 25. Please could any donations of Jumble be delivered to the hall between 6 & 8pm on Friday 24, thank you.

PEASMARSH CHRISTMAS SANTA: If you would like your child / children to receive a door knock and gift from Santa and his elves this year all you need to do is wrap a small present with your child’s name on and bring it to Kelly Cosens at 14 The Old Hop Gardens with a £5.00 donation per family. All money raised will be going to three very deserving charities. What a lovely idea, well done to all organising this and giving up their Christmas morning to make it magical for our little ones.

CHURCH SERVICES: This Sunday the 10am service will be at Peasmarsh church with the 8am service at Beckley as usual. There will be a Harvest Festival celebration in Beckley Church followed by refreshments at 6pm on Sunday October 12.
