This month’s Graffham’s Parish News
January 2025’s edition of Graffham Parish News is out now – with a photo on the cover of our MP Andrew Griffith with Graffhave Rec Chairman John Bracey and Rachel Gerrett, who led the team behind the village’s new playpark, at its opening just before Christmas. Inside there are details of our Christmas Fair, the arrival of ‘Messy Church’ to the parish, previews of all the events taking place in the Empire Hall in the coming weeks pus all the regular content. You can read a copy of the magazine online here.
We are thankful to be able to deliver our magazine free of charge each month to all parish residents and online here. If you would like to help us continue to produce this first class village resource, please click on this link.
Our award-winning Graffham Parish News is published monthly by Graffham Parochial Church Council (PCC) and hand-delivered free of charge to every household in Graffham and East Lavington, as part of our church’s service to the community. As well as details of upcoming church services and activities, it covers EVERYTHING that goes on locally – social events, Graffham and East Lavington Parish Councils, the Empire Hall, schools, the recreation ground and all other clubs, groups and organisations, you name it…
It has recently been honoured as one of the best parish magazines in the UK by the Association of Church Editors, the organisation for teams producing magazines for parish communities of all denominations throughout the country.
