let's make it bigger and better than ever
please get in touch to volunteer 

in the meantime stay safe

message from ​sue starr

well, we struggled to keep going, but eventually Golcar Lily Day 2020 had to be cancelled.

It was such a shame, especially as we had been promised a fly past by a Spitfire this year, but there we are

thank you very much indeed to everyone for all the planning and bunting making which has gone into this year, knitted and crocheted bunting had come from far and wide, not least Ossett and Southampton - but fear not,  it will all be used - if not before, then next year when we will celebrate the 76th anniversary of VE day as I get a feeling that at some time the flags will need to be out

thank you to everyone for the lovely messages and thanks too to all the people of Golcar who are looking out for and protecting one another in this crisis

look after yourselves and see you soon
