If you’re going to the Gillingham & Shaftesbury Show this month, don’t forget to stop by the church tent. A reliable fixture at every show, it’s a refreshment marquee run by the Church of England in Gillingham, Shaftesbury and Stour Vale.
The theme for this year is ‘The church is the place for life events’ – try out the photoboard to see how you would look as the bride and groom. It will show the happy couple in one of the 18 local churches – and you can have a look at the map to see the nearest church to you.
All profits are shared among selected rural community charities. Once again, the church tent are keeping their prices the same – £2 for filter coffee or a mug of tea and £2 for a slice of homemade cake. They’re brewing up from 8.30am to 6pm each day and their tent offers a warm welcome – and the chance to have a sit down!
