TAKE your partner by the hand on Friday, February 5, at 7:30pm at St George’s Church, Badshot Lea, and join in the sixth annual Candlemas Barn Dance to raise money for Parish funds. Supper is included but people are asked to bring their own drinks.

Bob Shatwell, who organises the event each yea,r said, “This event has got better each year that we have held it. We clear the whole church of chairs and have a tremendous space to dance in. Last year over 100 people attended.”

Reverend Lesley Crawley commented, “There is nothing like a barn dance to bring the community together, old and young, men and women, we all have fun attempting to get it right and laughing at ourselves when we get it wrong. Do come along, the food is great and it is remarkably good fun.”

Tickets are £10 for adults and £5 for children, available from Bob Shatwell, 01252 314703, [email protected].
