CHOIR AT LANDRAKE CHURCH28 Apr 2024 7.30 pm Join us in St Michael's Church, Landrake, at 7.30pm on Sunday 28th April, to raise funds for the window appeal. In 1686, a boy who was baptised in the church became Lord Mayor of London. This was Sir Robert Geffrye, the 'Dick Whittington of Landrake' who was a member of the Worshipful Company of Ironmongers, still linked to the village today. Come and enjoy our 'worshipful company' in this lovely and intersting church. Tickets £7.50 on the door. Book in advance at Landrake Stores or email landrakesterneyfundraising@gmail.com. Finger buffet (included) and raffle. |

Our multi-talented musical director is also an author and has published several lovely well-illustrated stories - even including Polperro Fishermen's Choir and the Wreckers transformed into rather naughty singing black bunnies in 'Honey Bee Meadow'!
