Air Ambulance Competition
In 2023, Children’s Air Ambulance celebrates the 10th anniversary of our first ever patient transfer.
Much has changed within our pioneering service in those 10 years, and we’re inviting children and young people to let their imaginations fly and tell us what they think helicopters will look like in the next 10 years. What special features will they have, what will they do, will they be fuelled by rubbish or piloted by remote control? Tell us in words, pictures or both and send it to us.
The competition leaflet can be downloaded from the link https://bit.ly/3RHyWae here or hard copies are available from the school office. There’s an awesome prize up for grabs for the winning entry so don’t delay entering!
Coffee and Cake Afternoon – Thank you!
Thank you to everyone who joined us for the ‘coffee and cake afternoon’ on Monday afternoon and to everyone who purchased cakes. The grand total raised was £320, to be shared equally between MacMillan Cancer Support and Bicton School. Thank you Caroline for the delicious cakes!
It was lovely to see so many of you and we look forward to the next one!
News from Severn Loop – October 2023
Dear Friends,
Into October we go! It’s harvest time, and we are reminded of the abundant gifts of the earth for us all to share – gifts which find their beginnings in the heart of God who is love. Do feel most welcome to join us for our Harvest services – you’ll find details in the Loop.
Our next Forest Church is a bit of a departure from the norm. We are going to do festive woodland crafts indoors, at the Mission Church in Bomere Heath. We’ve noticed that numbers are often low in the coldest months and, whilst we steer clear of December and January anyway, it’s good to have a bit of creature comfort for our final one before Christmas. It’s on the 19th November, 3pm. More details nearer the time…
Our next ‘conventional’ Forest Church will be on 25th February, and we have been promised lambing!
The Loop – our monthly newsletter – is attached below.
With love and blessings,
