“Keep Marshfield Tidy”:
Keep Britain Tidy has teamed up with the WI to launch England’s “Big Tidy Up”. Marshfield & Cold Ashton WI are going to do their bit by picking up Marshfield’s litter from October 4th ; they ask readers of “Cotswold Edge” to look out for them and perhaps come and help.

Help Keep St. Mary’s Tidy, Too!
HELP - Please could you volunteer about 15 - 20 minutes a week to adopt a few pews in our church and keep them clean?
The congregation appreciates the loyal group who throughout the year ensure their area sparkles, but there are some uncared for areas that need a regular commitment.
Can you offer this contribution of time to our Church? If so, please contact Pam Mills (892261).
