As a busy time of year when friends and family traditionally come together, Christmas can be a lonely time for someone who is grieving. Sending them a Christmas card or letter can be a great comfort, Here are some tips to help you show your support in a kind and respectful way.
From now until 23rd December we will be posting special memorial tributes for those who can't be with us during this time. If you would like a tribute created for you, please click on the link https://t.co/4zarCFu2V1
The tribute candles will be shared throughout the month.
They did it! 3 generations of the Lockes abseiled down the side of St George's Church tower in Brailes to help raise money towards the repair of the tower stone work, alongside many other villagers.
