Upchurch Twinning Group Annual Quiz Night - Amount Raised and Thank You

Upchurch is twinned with Ferques-Elinghen in Pas de Calais, France.

One of the pleasures of being Honorary Secretary is to tell you that this years Annual Quiz Night was a great success. 104 people turned up and as they all dug deep into their pockets (or purses) we have a profit of £640.00 to show for a nights work.

Our grateful thanks, I know, go to our volunteer team. Without them and all the hard work they put in both on the day and on many, many days and nights before, over the last few months we would not have had a Quiz Night.

We also had our usual raffle. Thanks to Ray Kemsley for organising and running it and thanks to all the people who donated prizes - over 33 of them. We only paid for one prize - and we are certain that was at a lot less than cost! Thanks to Terry and Tina from the Upchurch Greengrocers Shop.

In conclusion, it just remains to say “Thank you” to everyone who turned out to support us on a wet and windy night.  

All proceeds go towards years 5 & 6 Holywell children visiting either Elinghen or Ferques schools.

Clean for The Queen - Update

We’d love to have the support of Upchurch residents in the biggest ever clean-up of the country, which will be taking place in March 2016.

In the run up to The Queen's 90th birthday on 21st April 2016, the aim is to inspire people to take action and enjoy a few hours together litter-picking to make the village more beautiful. We want to attack the blight of litter and reclaim our beautiful countryside.

Holywell School are taking part in ‘Clean for the Queen’ on Friday 4th March 2016 and Upchurch Parish Council will be taking part on Saturday 5th March 2016. The meeting point for Saturday will be the Scout Hut in the Recreation Ground at 10:30am.

We desperately need volunteers to help on Saturday 5th March. Equipment will be provided. Please contact the Clerk if you would be willing to give up a few hours of your time to blitz the litter in Upchurch.

Thank you
