Over 30 Edenfield toddlers brought their families to a tea party on Saturday 17 July in aid of Edenfield Parish Church raising £335.
There were homemade Cakes and Biscuits, Raffle, Name the Teddy, children’s book stall, children’s clothes rail, colouring, music and laughter.
LocalrResident and Church member Pauline Nuttall said “It was lovely to see so many local children enjoying the company of each other whist raising money for our church.”
The event is in its second year and as it was such a success this year, it will definitely be held again next year.
A big thank you to everyone involved and every one who supported the Tea Party.

Bleakholt are holding another Windmill Walk this year so get your walking boots on and fill up that sponsorship form!
As last year there will be a short and long route and also the option of taking your car to the foot of the hills.
The walk will start at 12:00 on Sunday 22nd August from the main yard at Bleakholt.
There will be marshalls at key points to help with directions and water for both dogs and owners ... and if all gets too much there will even be transport available to bring you down again!!
Ring 08442 570411 to register -
They NEED your support - the end of 2009 saw them £200,000 poorer and this severly affects normal operations. |

Edenfield Through Time contains 180 photographs of which 90 are old photographs, some printed in a sepia tone and some in full colour. These photographs are printed alongside a contemporary full colour photograph which illustrates the same scene.
Covering Edenfield, Ewood Bridge, Irwell Vale, Lumb, Stubbins, Strongstry, Chatterton and Turn over the last 100 or so years this charming collection opens a window into views which were familiar to previous generations and show long-vanished buildings, changing modes of transport and the residents of the area at work and at play.
Many poignant memories are given a new lease of life, offering a trip down memory lane for some; for others this book will be a delightful voyage of discovery.

Are you a LOCAL society, group, charity, club, church ... ? 
Have you thought about using a website but then had second thoughts?
If you are non-commerical and non-political why not add your organisation's events and reports to our website. Edenfield's Local History and Horticultural Societies are already featured and planning ahead for their next programmes.
