November 2024 Edition of The Gabriel - Upchurch Village Magazine

Due to illness within the team, editor Dave Candy has taken the difficult decision to pull the plug on door-to-door deliveries of the November edition of The Gabriel. 

Dave would still like this month's parish magazine to reach the residents, and we are pleased to help by making it available to read online.

Please visit the link to read the magazine in PDF format: www.upchurchmatters.co.uk/Gabriel-November-2024.pdf

Our thoughts and best wishes for the future to everyone in The Gabriel team.
