It may be the middle of summer as you read this but some people have already begun collection items to put on their shoeboxes for the annual Samaritan's Purse Christmas Shoebox appeal.
This fund exists primarily to help students in higher and further education, with the purchase of their books and equipment, by making discretionary grants.
An Ice-cream day will be held on Saturday 5 September at Beamley Bungalow
Following on from our press release in the last Pump about a Grant that we have been awarded, we can report that the Ball Machine should be with us by August - just in time for Club Coach, Dan Loftus to use on our coaching courses in the holidays, which is great!

Thank You to all those who supported the Hemyock Indian Take-Away in April. Fine and dry for many today.
A chilly but sunny start to the day with plenty of sunshine, though the odd light shower may be possible at first. Pleasant in the sunny spells this afternoon, with temperatures around the seasonal average. Maximum temperature 16 °C.
Staying dry across the region tonight. Turning chilly under the clear skies with a few mist and fog patches possible. Minimum temperature 4 °C.
Any mist or fog will quickly clear in the morning. Staying dry with sunny spells at first, but cloud likely increasing during the afternoon in the east. Maximum temperature 16 °C.
Largely cloudy during early next week with showers possible at times. Some brighter interlude are also possible, particularly in the west. Windy at times, especially over the Moors.
