We had a BINGO evening in Leighton Village Hall back in June when Rod and Di Stevens stepped in at
the last minute to help and saved the day for the Village Hall and School. It was a much enjoyed
evening and raised £294 split 50/50. The next session will be held on Wednesday evening 6th
October at 6.30pm in the village hall so see you all there!

Pictured at the Christening Service in Leighton Church on

Kathleen Humphreys formerly of Malt House, Trelystan, also

service conducted by Bill Rowles was followed by a lunch for
family and friends

We hope to have a book launch event - possibly in September - in

of some of the materials we have collected in the course of
putting the book together - and tempt folk along with tea and
cakes! Sorry no date as yet.
