COFFEE MORNING -- Residents at Linton have always supported cancer charities very generously and the recent coffee morning in aid of the Cheltenham Hospital Cobalt Unit was no exception. The event was well attended and a total of £185.20 was raised. Thanks are expressed to all who gave donations or assisted in any way as well as those who came along on the day.

BARBECUE -- The village barbecue was another outstanding success with many newcomers to the village coming along. It was good to welcome these new friends as well as old neighbours. The event raised £724 for village hall funds. Many thanks to all who assisted in the organisation - and with the washing-up!
