First Saturday of the Month Markets:

(A notice from the Community Centre committee)

Firstly, the committee thanks the group led by Andrew Souness who put a huge amount of time into the amazing work needed for these markets to happen.    It is a massive contribution to the Village in many ways.

To advertise these markets, we are doing a letterbox drop in a relatively small area around The Village Church at Bryndwr.  We have 4 bundles of 50 flyers on the table at the back of the Church with the streets to be covered. If you can help with this please take a bundle.  It shouldn’t be too arduous and would help us greatly.  Thank you very much.

Also to do with the market we wondered about a sausage sizzle on market days during the Summer. For this to happen we need the loan of a BBQ and a couple of people to cook the sausages.  If you can help with this please see Lesley or Andrew.
