CANCELLED: The Rainbow Café at St Mary's Church, Upchurch












Hi everyone,

With a heavy heart, we have taken the decision to cancel the Rainbow Café at St Mary's Church on Thursday the 3rd of February.

Partly it's because of Covid and that we have family members we need to protect and care for.


We look forward to seeing you all again at our next Rainbow Café.


Gill Gay and all the Rainbow Café team
