Our new vicar, Noel, has been officiallly inducted into the benefice by the bishop of Chester at a service in St Paul's Helsby.
Michael's last service (for the time being!)
This morning (2nd July), Michael Mills took his last service at St Luke's before our new vicar arrives. We are very grateful for all that he has done during the lengthy interregnum and hope that he will come back to see us again soon.
Thank You Michael!

Foodbank collections – Thank you!
We would like to express a massive thank you to everyone who has continued to contribute to our collection for the West Cheshire Foodbank, especially the residents of Talbot Road who have continued to keep the drop-off point there supplied with food and other essentials. This week we were able to take 43.54Kg of much-needed supplies to the warehouse. Our 2023 collection now amounts to nearly 200Kg for the West Cheshire Foodbank. Keep up the good work!
To make it easier for you, there are drop off points at strategic points around the village where you can just call and leave a donation of food or toiletries:
23 Talbot Road, 1 Croft Cottages, School Cottage, 7 Hob Lane
THANK YOU

News from the Helsby and Dunham Friendship Group
On Wednesday 12th April the members of the Helsby and Dunham Friendship Group heard an interesting and informative talk from Kim of the Children's Air Ambulance. We also had a raffle and a Book Swap to raise money for this worthy cause. We were so impressed by what we heard that we decided to give the proceeds from next month's meeting to this charity too.
Next month, the meeting will be at a different venue, because it will be a garden party to celebrate the coronation. Pat Holder is very kindly hosting the event at her house: 4 Rose Farm Close, which is next to the Railway Inn, Helsby. Everyone is welcome to join the group for any of our meetings, which are held monthly on the second Wednesday. You can download a schedule from the Friendship Group section of this website.
