The Big Help Out
If your organisation needs more volunteers in Jesmond, why not attend the St George’s Church Big Friendly Coronation Gathering on 8 May? For more information contact the Parish Office.
A Parisian Musical Soiree
The Festival event originally planned for Saturday 13 May in Jesmond United Reformed Church will now take place on Friday 2 June instead, same time and same place. Many apologies for any inconvenience caused, especially as the printed festival programme will now be incorrect, for this event.
The programme for the evening is as follows:
Songs, Vocal Ensembles and Piano Music by Offenbach, Bizet, Berlioz, Delibes, Saint-Saens and more, performed by Jane Corbitt (soprano), Delia McNally (mezzo soprano), Les Hodgson (tenor), John McCauley (narrator/bass) and Len Young (piano). Tickets £12. Refreshments available.
The event will commence at 7:30pm.
The Jesmond Ice Cream Company
Are you organising a festival event, and would like ice cream to be available? If so, you might like to contact thejesmondicecreamcompany@gmail.com . Their fun trike retails Doddingtons ice cream tubs in 11 flavours, Scoop’s ice cream for dogs, and home baked cakes. The trike will definitely be at the Tour de Jesmond on 7 May and the Big Friendly Gathering on 8 May.
