| Little Shelford Street party | May 8 | | Church Street, Little Shelford | Cancelled
Sadly our planned street party and children's games at the Priest House have been cancelled due to the Covid-19 crisis. We had also planned a Commemorative Thanks Giving service at All Saints Church at noon on 8th May which in terms of a traditional service at the Church has also had to be cancelled. We will see if we can commemorate combined VE & VJ Day 75th events on 15th – 16th August as an alternative and more information will appear later in the Magazine and on the Village web site.
However, Simon Scott, our Rector at All Saints, is still hoping that we can have a virtual Commemorative Thanksgiving service at NOON on Friday 8th May as an alternative collective act of Thanksgiving in the Village.
More details of how to connect to the virtual All Saints event will be in the May edition of the Parish Newsletter and on the Village web site or you will find information on connecting posted nearer to the date at: www.allsaintslittleshelford.org
