resident whose son had been helped by RABI, spoke to visitors throughout the morning, promoting the work of the charity. There will be no cafe in August so the next Community Café will be at the Victoria Hall, Sutton Scotney, 9.30am–12 noon on Wednesday 21st September when we will be raising funds for the Royal National Lifeboat Institution. The RNLI volunteer lifeboat crews provide a 24-hour rescue service in the UK and Ireland, and seasonal lifeguards look after people on busy beaches.

Hampshire History Trust, the charity which runs Heritage Open Days in Winchester, is searching for a Trust Secretary to join their supportive and welcoming board. The role of Secretary is to support the chair by ensuring the board functions smoothly. The secretary may carry out their duties directly or delegate to volunteers or staff, ensuring that tasks are completed. Key skills include relevant experience, knowledge of the Charities Commission Trustee Duties and Responsibilities, good IT skills, analytical skills, ability to communicate. Trustees serve in a voluntary capacity but with the satisfaction of supporting a distinctive and highly-regarded heritage organisation. The activities championed by the Trust have gone from strength to strength in recent years, and are at the heart of a thriving heritage movement in Hampshire. Beginning informally in 2016 with a Heritage Open Days programme of 40 events, by 2019, the offer had reached over 140 attractions ranging from chocolate tastings to live theatre, leading to the formal foundation of Hampshire History Trust – and the launch of a brilliant new podcast, ‘Hampshire Histbites’ in 2020.
HHT Chair Nicky Gottlieb said:
“The Trust Secretary is at the heart of our team and will make a real difference to our work to bring Hampshire’s history alive. If you are as excited as we are about promoting the rich and diverse stories that make us who we are today, this is a brilliant opportunity to come on-board. Let us know!”
Closing date for applications: End of August 2022 Interviews: September 2022 To find out more visit https://hampshirehistorytrust.com or email trustees@hampshirehistorytrust.com
Your Tea Tent Needs You!
The Micheldever fête will be taking place on Saturday 17th September 1pm-4pm. The tea tent will need lots of volunteers to help with serving tea and clearing tables. If you think you can help for an hour on the day, or bake a cake (or two!), please do get in touch with me. I would also be grateful for some help setting up in the morning.
Thank you

Sayings & Excerpts
Collected over the years by Dorothy Knight who died in 2015 aged 100.
The diocese of Winchester has been dominated by its magnificent Norman cathedral for more than 900 years. We can smile at this amusing list of repairs from 1673, which was found in the cathedral clock.
- work done repairing St Joseph 8d
- Cleaning ... the Holy Spirit 6d
- Repairing the Virgin Mary before and behind and making a new child 4s 8d
- Screwing the nose on the devil, putting a horn on his head and gluing a piece on his tail 5s 6d.
