There are now books in Shipton church for you to buy, swap or just borrow. If you wish to add to the book collection you can drop any off at the Vicarage or Shipton Church – or phone Geoffrey for collection.

Do join us for this month’s Death Cafe.

What is it?

A group directed discussion of death with no agenda, objectives or themes. It is a discussion group rather than a grief support or counselling session. All are welcome.

Death is inevitable so why not talk about it?
