Friends of St George’s Gardens invite you to join them on Saturday 21 December at noon to sing carols beside the Chapel of Rest. With the TAP Ukulele Band again, and mulled wine and mince pies, they’ll be collecting for the Trussell Trust foodbank charity for the third year. Please help raise even more than last year’s total of £430.

They now have the 2024 FoSGG Christmas card on sale. 5×7 inch, a lovely photo of the Gardens in the snow by Harriet Goodman, FoSGG supporter, with Father Christmas and his reindeers sweeping in. They cost £8 for 10 – a little bigger than last year’s cards so a small price rise, but the same quality from the same printer. Any profit will go to FoSGG. To buy, reply to bloomsburysquares@talktalk.net and say when you would like to collect from Tavistock Place (details provided by return).
