FUNd-Raising Events
 

Our Mediaeval Fayre - first Saturday in September

 

This event takes place annually at the beginning of September, from 10.30-16.00, in the church grounds (weather permitting!) Stalls are positioned outside church between the ancient yew trees. There are cakes, preserves, jewellery, plants, crafts, books and bric-a-brac for sale. Stall holders dress in mediaeval costumes. We organise side-shows, raffles, tombolas, exhibitions and tours of the old Norman church. Refreshments are served all day and the barbecue is ready by lunchtime. Visitors can make rubbings of the old brasses inside church. Entry by donation.

 

Our Church Lunches

 

Once a month following the 11.00 Sunday service, our team of caterers provide a two course hot lunch (traditional roast/vegetarian choice and vegetables), pudding, coffee or tea. Church lunches are great way to meet our church family.

 

Upton Evenings

 

Recent Upton Evenings have included Slide shows and talks on various local topics of interest. A potted history of the Knights Templars was enjoyed by all and followed with a Mediaeval Meal. Various musical events have also taken place including organ and harp recitals and poetry readings.

Any fund raised go towards our "Building for the Future Project" which at the moment is focussed on the Repair and Conservation of our ancient Chancel.
