CRICKLADE’S Big Day Out in aid of Christian Aid, takes place on May 11.

You are welcome along to share in the fun and raise money to help some of the world’s poorest people.

Christian Aid has been doing it for over 50 years and in Cricklade there will be a special day to open this year’s Christian Aid Week.

After the special service at the United Church, the group will head up to St Sampson’s for abseiling from the bell tower, a barbecue, teddy bear parachuting from the tower, a chocolate fountain, cream teas, a bouncy castle and more.
