Recycling
Following the church meetig and looking at what was tiked on the sheet, Angela has signed up to a recycling programme that will give BBGA money for recycling biscuit and snack wrappers. We can recycle any brand of biscuit, cracker and cake wrappers such as digesties, rich tea etc. This includes the likes of Penguin's etc but not chocolate bars like Mars, Snickers etc, or the inside plastic tray as they are made from a diffrent material. Cardboard innards should go in household recycling. Please bring clean and dry wrappers to church and deposit in the box. We need a kg before we can send a shipment. Each kg earns 200points and we get a 1p per point.

And finally…
“Awake the harp, the lyre awake!
With shouts of joy, your voices raise!
In triumph proclaim the might of the Lord!
For all the heav'ns and the earth has he clothed in glorious attire.”
(A Chorus from Haydn’s Creation – Joseph Haydn 1732-1809)
