Congratulations to Kate and George on the occasion of their wedding at Bodham
Church on 10th January. It was a lovely ceremony enjoyed by all despite the
chilly weather [hand warmers and rugs were thoughtfully provided!] and the
church was beautifully decorated for a winter wedding!
Use of the Church
Although the church isn’t used for regular services so much any more due to the
distance and lack of facilities, it still needs to be kept in reasonable
condition for occasions such as this and funerals and for services such as
Remembrance and Harvest.
Are you able to help with cleaning, sweeping and dusting? A regular commitment
isn’t necessary, just the offer of help sometimes would be wonderful.

Bodham Churchyard Conservation Volunteers - February 2026
The snowdrops and aconites are appearing across the churchyard, it looks lovely
but please be careful if you walk across the long grass not to step on the bulbs
that are coming through. Some of the volunteers have tackled the largest patch
of brambles - next we will be cutting back the church side of some of the hedges
and carefully checking and recording the oldest gravestones to encourage the
lichen growth. Next meeting dates are Saturday 14th February, Friday 27th
February, Saturday 14th March and Friday 27th March. These sessions will start
at 10.30 and will finish by 12.30 , strictly weather permitting. More volunteers
always welcome, just turn up but if you’d like to receive confirmation the meet
is going ahead, please
send Moya an email address or mobile/phone number.
