Why not write an article for Parish News?
We are a vibrant, thinking, Christian community in the heart of the town and the magazine should reflect this and encourage interest in what’s going on here. So we need a good balance of reports on past and forthcoming events, plus feature articles, both sacred and secular. Any topic of interest to you that is informative, encouraging or amusing, would be most welcome.
Handwritten or typed articles can be left at the Parish Office, St Mary’s Churchyard, CB10 1JP Emailed articles should be sent to the editor John Pickthorn: jejpickthorn@gmail.com
The copy deadline for each issue is the first Sunday of the month prior to publication. Please be aware that 400 words fit comfortably onto an A5 page and that any article over 800 words will need to be edited to ensure readability.
