The Big Lunch – Cancelled

We're sorry to announce that The Big Lunch, scheduled for this Saturday, has been cancelled due to the forecast of wet and windy weather.

This was a difficult decision to make, but because of the preparations involved, we were unable to leave it until closer to the event.

However, we're pleased to say that we will be incorporating as much of the event as possible into our next Feast Night on Friday 12th June.

Thank you for your understanding. We hope to see you there!
