Please note that our Thursday Warm Spaces will now run from 9am till 1pm at the Parish Hall. It will coincide with the Foyer Café and the Post Office, and all tea, coffee and biscuits will be FREE OF CHARGE until April the 6th.
You can also bring your lunch and we can offer free tins of soup as well. This will be staffed by volunteers as usual.
Keep warm and enjoy the company of others!
Here’s a poster about it:
The next Coffee Morning at Warcop Parish Hall is on Saturday 11th March, 10:00 – 11:30am. Your local Parish, District and County Councillors have been invited to attend, as well as the two councillors on the new Westmorland & Furness unitary authority. This will be an opportunity to get to know your councillors and to raise any issues or ideas with them.
Here is a poster about the event:
Thank you to all who helped search for the missing cat Oski, who has now thankfully been found by a local farmer. The owner has sent this message with permission to circulate it wider:
Incredibly on day 16 of Oski the cat’s disappearance, Steve, one of the local farmers has found him alive in the field just behind Upper Field View (where we are presently living).
We have just taken him to the vet and he is clearly not in the best of health but as an 18 year old with existing conditions, he is back with us.
He lost half of his already light body weight and will have to be carefully monitored but we are so grateful for the opportunity to have him home with us even if it is just for a short time.
He has eaten well, drunk a large amount of water and is curled up in a snug little animal den with a hot water bottle under it.
We are very grateful for all of the kind comments people in the community have made and would like to thank everybody for keeping a good lookout for Oski.
Special thanks to Steve of course.
Best wishes.
Lee & Lydia.
