This year around twenty folk including 3 children came together for a 'bring and share lunch' on Boxing Day. This is now the fourth year we have done this and it seems as popular as ever. We enjoyed the company of friends and good food with lots of fun as the picture show.
Christian Aid Walk.The Walk this year will be on Saturday, 31st July, starting from the Methodist Church at 9.30 a.m. The route will take you over the hill to Hathersage Church and from there via Toothill Farm to a coffee stop at the end of the farm road. From there - over the moor to Toad's Mouth on the Hathersage/Sheffield Road and down Padley Gorge to Padley Chapel for lunch. A voulunteer will show us inside the historic Padley Chapel. After lunch the return to Bamford is via fields and woods to Leadmill Bridge and then along the river to Shatton and finally up the the hill to the Chapel for a well earned cuppa. The amount raised on last year's walk was £700. Photos below. A great effort - thanks to all. starting out from Bamford ... ...... ......... .. .on the way near Hagg Farm

number turned out for this essential fund-raising event
and enjoyed tea, coffee, a biscuit and a chat and a chance to use the
'bring-and-buy-stall' and raffle. The gifts received total £1,925.00. Caring and serving has to include giving.
