This Sunday

Sunday 29 March – Palm Sunday

Followed by Easton’s ADCM

Lent Lunches

Lent lunches were started in the 1990s by the late Juliet Burnand, and the non-denominational tradition has been carried on ever since. They are hosted in private homes, offering a simple lunch of soup, bread and cheese. Everyone local, young and old, are welcome and there is an opportunity to donate to a charity: this year the collection is for the Winchester Hospice.
