BB@Home – a round-up

At the start of lockdown, it was difficult to tell how our Anchor and Junior section members would respond to ‘BBatHome’, the new way of working for the 1st Bletchley Boys’ Brigade and Girls’ Association during the pandemic.

BBatHome is a set of resources that parents can use with their children whilst they are unable to come out and meet, as we would normally do. BBatHome is more than just resources! We’ll also be meeting…

Virtual Services

As we move into a new normal there are a number of local churches planning virtual services. Alice McDermott at St James Road, Watford:  Service will start at 10am on Sundays… maybe a little clumsy at first as I get used to it. Interactive via facebook comments (those with an account) and via text message…
