This was a celebration of ten years of supporting the older members of the community every Monday with a cooked lunch at the Methodist Chapel in Knighton.


The Churches Together in Knighton Lunch Club celebrated their tenth anniversary on Monday 22nd April. The lunch club provides older member of the community with a weekly, freshly cooked 2-course meal, in the Knighton Methodist Church, Victoria Road, Knighton. Sister Margaret Davies, Lunch Club leader said today “The success of the lunch club, with up to 50 members attending regularly, is thanks to the  hard work and commitment  provided by a team of  volunteer helpers supported and supervised by dedicated cooks  over the last ten years.”

Also present for the celebration and cutting of the anniversary cake were representatives from the Knighton and District Rotary Club. Rotary President Howard Goslyn said “We are pleased to have been able to give financial donations to this excellent community project over the past three years.” The lunch club members also recognised the work of the original committee, including Reverend Maggie Rich, Sister Margaret Davies and Helen Anderson, the latter who also manages Knighton Food Bank which is another community project for Churches Together.
