Our first event after the lifting of coronavirus restricutions will be our annual picnic. Like all of our events, this is open to people of all faiths and none. It will be held again in St Mary's Park, St Mary's Road, Prestwich.
We will be in the picnic area next to the car park and the tennis courts.
If you want to use Google maps, we recommend searching for The Phoenix Youth and Community Centre, St. Marys Park, St. Marys Rd, Prestwich, Manchester M25 1GG, which is just a few yards beyond the picnic area.
Our picnics are always very sociable occasions. However we are being cautious since the return to normal life post-pandemic is inevitably a gradual process. Accordingly when it comes to sociability:
We hope to have a gazebo without side walls in case of rain.
Cllr Eamonn O'Brien has indicated that he will be attending. If he can make it, we have asked him to say (or more accurately shout given our social distancing!) a few words. As you will see from his details page on the Bury Council website, St Mary's Park is within the ward Eamonn represents, and he is also the leader of Bury Council.
Our picnics are always very enjoyable, and even with the above precautions to take account of the recent pandemic, this year's should be no exception. There is no need to book; just come on the day.
We plan to organise an afternoon tea, with a glittering array of speakers, at Swinton Masonic Hall, Hospital Road, Pendlebury, M27 4EY.
This is not yet open for booking, but please note the date in your diary.
