@MarstonsPLC have contacted me which us good. Lets see what they decide is the correct course of action.

Very poor from @MarstonsPLC. Took a group of 26 Scouts for dinner with the 40% off mains voucher x 4. Asked to split and pay for 3x8 plus 1x3 but was told no before ordering! Had to pay full price.

Are you an Anglican Presbyter or Deacon and looking to re-plant a church in the North West of England?

If so, please do be in touch.

We are soon to launch an excellent House-for-Duty post at St John’s Tottington.

Ideal for a creative bi-vocational minister.

A day off today so I took the time to complete another qualifying walk towards my Lowland Leader Award.
A wet but enjoyable walk in the Ribble Valley visiting Ribchester and Hurst Green.

[Stuart Parker @StuartMParker]

Much better weather for day 2 of Lowland Leader Award training.
Thanks to Stuart Gorman of Ullswater Outdoors for his guidance for the past 2 days👍

[Stuart Parker @StuartMParker]

My office for the last 2 days 😀. Off to the lakes tomorrow walking from Torver. Weather is set fair so promises to be an enjoyable day on the lakeland fells.

Winter may be quieter at the Activity Centre, but our volunteers are hard at work 🛠️
From repairing canoes to improving boat storage, their behind-the-scenes efforts keep our equipment safe, efficient, and ready for the busy season ahead. Huge thanks to the team!
