Reminder: Remembrance Sunday; 8 November 2026

Meet at the War Memorial, Back Lane at 10.50am

To remember and pay our respects to all members of the armed services who gave their lives during the first and second world wars. And in particular to remember the eleven young men from Holcot who paid the ultimate price so that future generations could live in peace.

This will be followed by a short service of readings, prayers and hymns in the church.

Free Online Safety courses from Service Six; October and November

Service Six is offering online internet safety courses for Parents and Carers of young children.

If the young person is neurotypical, the relevant course is in October. There is also an online course for parents of children with SEND in November (SEND children often access the internet differently).

Both courses are free to attend and the registration is via Eventbrite.

3.00pm on Sunday 12 July is Fancy Dress time! Don’t miss out!

The Holcot Summer Fete is taking place on the Green by the Church on Sunday 12 July.

And we’re calling all princesses, clowns, super heroes, dinosaurs, cartoon characters, monsters, unicorns, fairies… and, oh… anything else you can think of!

Get Mum and Dad to help you create your favourite outfits! Tell them they need to get their imaginations into gear, and dig out some of those funky outfits they used to strut around in 20 years ago (that they hoped would come back into fashion). Yeah… as if!

Then they need to cut them up and sew them back together to create something NEW and FAN-TAS-MA-GORICAL! For YOU to strut around in!

The main event starts at 2.00pm, and to take part in the fancy dress competition, you MUST register your name by 3.00pm.

So come on Mum and Dad – time to step up!
