A TEAM from a northern parish which faces social and economic problems is set to visit the Itchen Valley.
Itchen Valley Churches will host the group from St James Benwell, a parish in the West End of Newcastle on June 19-21.
It is part of links between the Diocese of Winchester and Diocese of Newcastle.
Collections have already been made in the valley to assist Benwell in their much-needed community activities.
The visitors will be taken on a tour of Winchester and the cathedral, before attending the patronal service and a lunch in St John’s Church in Itchen Abbas on June 21.
For further information or to attend the lunch call Revd Rebecca Fardell on 01962 809264.
