This year’s Ironstone Festival will take place at St Etheldreda’s Church, Horley on Thursday 5th, Friday 6th and Saturday 7th September.
Note that the Thursday evening concert is something a bit different with choral music from a dynamic and up and coming group.
Tickets are available from https://www.ironstonechambermusic.com/
Everyone is welcome to a thanksgiving service to celebrate the life of
EDNA
12:15 Thursday 15th August
St Etheldreda’s Church, Horley
Followed by light refreshments in Horley School House
No flowers please and no need to wear black – some colour would be good
Donations to Katharine House Hospice would be gratefully received.
Due to a fantastic number of guests at this year’s Progressive Dinner on 10th August, we now need a further host to accommodate everyone. If you could possibly help please call or message Vanessa on 07899 755700.
As you may be aware we are changing things up a bit at this year’s Progressive Dinner and everyone is meeting up at The Old School after the main course for drinks and pudding.
We have had a number of kind offers already but need a further 6 puddings. If anyone else can offer, even if you are not able to join us on the night, please call or message Julie on 07849929661. We would really appreciate it and of course all proceeds go to the upkeep of the church.
The bins on Wroxton Lane weren’t collected last week as the road was closed by Thames Water. CDC have said that if the bins are left out they will be collected sometime this week.
Rachel and Vanessa have already had a great response from the village regarding guests for the Horley Progressive Dinner and those who have been kind enough to host.
They say: ‘Do let us know as soon as possible if you are hoping to attend so we can finalise numbers in good time.
As you may be aware we are changing things up a bit this year and having pudding and drinks back at The Old School.
If you would be able to provide a pudding we would be very grateful, all calories will be used up walking up the hill so the more the merrier!’

Dave and Natasha would like to invite the village to a Rum & Reggae Sunday to mark their 20 years at the Red Lion:
Horley Manor stables were broken into last night as were the garages and outbuildings belonging to the houses at the top of Manor Orchard. Please can everyone make sure they lock all their outbuildings and do not leave tools/gardening equipment outside.
There will be a host of horticultural bargains at the 3H’s Gardening Club annual plant sale, taking place this Saturday, 18 May, from 10am to 12 noon at Hornton Pavilion.
Come along and buy quality bedding plants and vegetable plants as well as varied plants potted up from the local gardens of the members. Do pop along – the early bird gets the best choice!
You don’t need to be a 3Hs member to bag a bargain on Saturday but, if you are a gardener, why not join? Membership is only £10 a year. Meetings are held on the second Tuesday evening of the month at the Pavilion, where there are interesting talks from outside speakers on all things horticultural. Proceeds from Saturday’s plant sale enable the club to pay for outside speakers at its meetings.
On top of that, you get a 10% discount card with Farnborough nurseries, so you can make the cost of your membership with one visit there.
And you’ll also be able to exhibit in the club’s annual flower and produce show, which this year will take place on Saturday 17 August so there is still time for you to get growing!
The annual Horley Parish Meeting will take place at The Old Schoolrooms at 7.30 pm on Thursday 9th May 2024. This is an open meeting organised by the Parish Council at which any parishioner is welcome to address the meeting or ask questions.
