Garden Party - Sunday June 24th - 3pm to 5pm

This year Jill and Jon's international garden party will be in aid of the Manuel Bravo project which provides legal help to asylum seekers. It will be opened by John Packer, Bishop of Ripon, who is a strong supporter of the project and has criticised government policy and media attitudes: "People fleeing from torture, false imprisonment or death threats deserve compassion and practical help and not the harsh treatment they currently experience."

All members of the Roundhay churches, their friends and families are invited to enjoy a summer Sunday at Jill and Jon's, 40 The Avenue, Roundhay where there are new plants and sculptures.

Please will you help by:
publicising - we can provide posters; contributing - good quality raffle prizes or products for stalls; selling plants, bric-a-brac, cakes, jams, books; helping - with children, teas, entrance, games, competitions, setting up; selling tickets.

Offers of help to Jill on 0113-2665165 or jill@vogler.demon.co.uk

The Manuel Bravo project operates under Leeds Christian Community Trust. More information can be obtained from www.manuelbravo.org.uk
