 | 14th Jan 2009 | New Church Floor January 2009
The National Churches’ Trust has very kindly approved a grant of £5,000 to All Saints Church, Cople to help meet the costs of the work done on the floor.
The old wooden floor, which was on three levels and in a bad state of repair, has been replaced with smart flagstones all on one level, rendering it more accessible to those with disabilities and providing a splendid area for activities undertaken by various groups, for example, the Sunday School, Tiny Tots and the Friends.

 | 8th Jun 2008 | Friends of Cople Church BBQ (Vaughan's photos)
After a week of indifferent or even squally weather, the day of the barbecue dawned with glorious sunshine and cloudless blue skies and the good folk of Cople and their friends took full advantage of it, shorts and panamas being the outfits of choice. Summerhill Farm Shop turned up trumps with delectable new season's lamb and succulent sausages, and our chefs cooked them to perfection. As always, there was an array of delicious salads and scrumptious desserts; wine and beer from Potton brewery ensured that liquid refreshment was in plentiful supply, and music from Saxophrenia fed the soul.
We are indebted to Brian and Judith Howard for the loan of their lovely garden, and indeed to our indefatigable team for their sterling efforts. Our thanks go as well to all those generous people who gave prizes for the raffle, which made a handsome contribution towards the overall profit of 787 pounds.
