Trinity Singers’ next concert will be ‘Lazing on a Sunday afternoon‘ and will contain a variety of gentle music from composers old and new.  It will take you on a journey from sacred music, through the countryside, and you’ll hear of love and loss, and revel in the wonders of warm, starry summer nights.

The programme includes the theme music from the Vicar of Dibley, an arrangement of Scarborough Fair, and music by Lauridson, Byrd and Tallis among others.

This concert will be rehearsed, and conducted, by their Guest Conductor Alison Blundell.
 
Join them on Sunday June 7th, 2026 at St. Mary’s Church, Yatton at 3:30 pm.

This will be a shorter programme of about an hour, followed by tea/coffee and cakes – just perfect for a (hopefully) sunny Sunday afternoon!

Tickets are available from their website www.trinitysingers.co.uk or from members of the choir.

Next week (13^th to 17^th April) the A370 will be completely closed during the day (7am to 7pm) in Backwell.  

This will affect drivers and especially users of the X1 bus service.  

The official diversion is via the A38 from Bristol coming into Congresbury from Langford along the Brinsea Road. And the other way round going to Bristol. Several village bus stops will not be served by the X1 for that week.

There will be a similar closure in June but we’ll post info on that nearer the time!

Hour spare with a helping hand

Voluntary Action North Somerset (VANS) is delighted to announce the roll out of the Good Neighbour Scheme, a community led initiative designed to support older residents (65+) living in rural villages across North Somerset. The scheme connects local volunteers with residents who need occasional help with small odd jobs in and around their home, enabling people to remain independent in their own homes for as long as possible.

If you have a spare hour and would like to volunteer with this scheme, please contact Tracy on 07458073262 or email info@vansmail.org.uk

If you get a call that seems off, stop, hang up, and dial 159. It’s a safe and direct way to connect with your bank when you’re most at risk of being scammed. It’s simple, easy to remember, and can’t be faked so 159 will never call you.

The attached has some useful information and a link to the Stop Scams UK website.
