Newton Poppleford and Harpford Parish Council has issued an invitation to a Christmas lunch it is staging in the village hall from 1pm to 3pm on Tuesday (December 20).
The event is being run by councillors Anita Kemp and Makala Tillotson, with resident Lorna Dalton.
Councillor Kemp said: “We’ve done several events this year as a council aimed at younger people – the fireworks display and the Queen’s picnic. We wanted to do something for older residents to say thank-you for all they do in the community.”
The meal has had donations from La Rosetta, Rickshaw Express, the Cannon Inn, Bookers and Waitrose. County councillor Christine Channon has offered funding support.
Anyone who wishes to attend can contact Anita on 07970 797617, or Lorna on 01395 372708.
