Please send news, events and contributions for future issues or the deanery website to [email protected] as early as possible. This helps us share your stories more widely and keep everyone informed.

All the parishioners from St Wilfrid’s and St George’s would like to wish Fr Rory a very happy 77th Birthday.
A reminder that during September and October we are asked to provide details to the diocese of mass attendance in our churches. Welcomers please ask that someone does this count weekly.
