Young Christians Coffee morning and duck race

This year the Young Christians coffee morning was in the Parish Hall which was lovely and warm in the snowy weather.  The duck race, which is traditionally held on the river Ouse near the weir at the Mill field was indoors because of the dangerous condition of the river, so the three winning ducks were drawn at the end of the coffee morning, during the Lent lunch.

The line of pennies raised £33.19, the duck race raised £124, bric a brac stall £61.87.  These funds will go to the Parish Lent appeal which is the Additional Curates Society.  The residents of Fegans court knitted about 100 chicks containing creme eggs, and £122 was raised for MK Foodbank.  £71 was raised on the refreshments for the church restoration fund.
