• TINY tots celebrated the first birthday of their monthly Toddlers Praise sessions at All Saints, Wyke, with a special cake, games and other activities.

These afternoon sessions have changed lives and created a relaxed and comfortable environment for parents with wriggly young children to praise God and learn together in church.

Newcomers from any church background or none are always welcome. Just turn up at the church at 2pm on the first Wednesday of the month.

  • REPRESENTATIVES from Dorset County British Legion presented John and Karen Pearce with an award in recognition of the couple’s services to ex-service men and women of Dorset.

So many certificates are now displayed on the walls of Alf’s Fish and Chip shop at Fiveways that space is running out.

The couple are currently inviting donations from customers and members of the community to fund this year’s planned excursions for local people who cannot easily get out and about.
