Holy Trinity are arranging a Collectors’ Fayre in the Parish Church for 14th/15th September with a view to providing for Bengeo an interesting exhibition of ‘things’ which its residents have collected over the years and are willing to share throughout the community.
The organisers are hoping for as varied and interesting displays as possible, and any residents who have a collection, however big or small, that they might like to contribute can contact Mary Crane at em.crane(at)virginmedia.com or Penny Andrew at pennyandrew22(at)hotmail.com. A flavour of contributions already offered:
- Monkeys
- Postcards
- Trains
- Driftwood sculptures
- Rope decorations
- Bookmarks
- Antique lace and embroideries
- Pre-war framed etchings
- Morgan cars!
The closing date for notification of collectables is 30th June and they look forward to adding to the list by that date. It is hoped there will be something of interest to everybody and that many people will, at least, share a cuppa during their visit.
