Skipness Events
The annual village Sale of Work has been held in Skipness since 1910 and continues to this day to be a much talked about, successful, community event in Kintyre. The proceeds have always been used by the church to maintain the fabric of this fine building in the village, but without the willingness and generosity of villagers of all faiths and none, the event would not be as successful. An appeal goes out once again to the members of the community to help maintain the reputation and popularity of this event.
We are keen to welcome people to support us, who have recently moved to the village or enjoy the delights of this beautiful village with a holiday home. For ease of administration the list of stalls and helpers from the year before is used (copy at the bottom of the form with dates changed for 2022), on the understanding that people can change their activity or introduce a new idea for fund raising. Fun and flexibility is the key. The baking stall is always very popular, with donations much appreciated.
If you would like to contribute in any way please get in touch or complete the form below and return to Melissa at Skipness House (07791 310908)
An opportunity to come together once a month in the church to chat, discuss progress & share a hot drink & baking.
