Record breaking FRAMEWORK total

Framework

News just in from Dinah.

The Framework coffee morning held last Saturday in the Burton Joyce Community Church hall raised £285 towards work with the homeless in Nottingham. 

Added to the collection in the Co-op on Saturday morning, together with some very generous donations, this took the total collection for the village to £730 - our highest total ever.

Dinah says:
Thank you to everyone who supported us on Saturday.
 Well done, everyone.

Thank you for your support at the Framework coffee morning! £285!

Homelessness is becoming a major issue and resources are limited
