£500 raised from the Cambridge Voices concert

A huge thank you to everyone who attended the Cambridge Voices concert which raised £500 to support St Mary Magdalene. Particular thanks go to the magnificent choir who gave us such a wonderful performance and who so generously donated their time. St Mary Magdalene is a Grade I listed building and relies on the generosity of supporters to keep it maintained and looking beautiful in the heart of the village. If you were unable to attend the concert, please do consider coming to another of the various events throughout the year that support our church. The next scheduled event is the Harvest Supper on Saturday 5th October 2024.
