Christmas wreaths

The end of the Christmas and Epiphany season is on Candlemas, 2 February. We take down the church Christmas decorations after that and Christmas wreaths are removed from the churchyard as these are looking very tired by then. If you are able to remove Christmas wreaths from graves, it would really help us if you could do that, but if not we are happy to remove them for you. Thank you.
