There's a pile of stuff that we are disposing of beside one of the sheds in the churchyard. It includes metal poles (from an ex-marquee) that someone might find useful. Feel free to take them away if you want them. But don't hang about - they will be removed during next week!

THANK YOU from the coordinators!

The marquees are back in the shed and that, for us, represents the official end of Wells Week!

Tony and I would like to thank everyone who helped us with the planning and preparation of this year's Wells Week! If we named any individuals we would then feel obliged to name everyone, and the risk of missing someone accidentally is too great! But you know who you are - you have devoted multiple hours over several months without fanfare or reward, and have been the backbone of making Wells Week happen.

Wells Week this year has been a great success. We can measure that by the number of people from the village who got involved and were rewarded with that invaluable sense of community, by the sheer number of people who turned up and enjoyed the fete over the weekend, and by the wonderful feedback from visitors who were once again blown away by the warmth, friendliness and beauty of our village. And, of course, by the significant amount of money we raised to allow the church and its grounds to continue to thrive as one of the most beautiful landmarks in Derbyshire.

Tony Dent and Dave Graham

We got most of the Wells Week "take down" jobs done today, but we did hold off on the final dismantling of the marquees until tomorrow, to allow some bits to dry. Please join us tomorrow at 9am if you can for the final push. 'Dropping' the marquees requires a team of about eight, so all help is welcome!
Thank you!

Wells Week Take-down, Saturday 28th August at 10.30am!
A reminder that the big Wells Week tidy up continues tomorrow. Marquees to sort out, Wells Dressings to dismantle, signs to take down, and several other jobs. We're meeting at 10.30 and hope you can join us.
With a good size group of us it shouldn't take long!
