It was lovely to see the Right Reverend Leah Vasey-Saunders, Bishop of Doncaster, in Armthorpe this morning for the communion service at St Leonard and St Mary’s. A warm and uplifting service, and a great pleasure to welcome her to our parish. @sheffdio.org @leahvs.bsky.social

Sad news about Dickie Bird. I was lucky enough to meet him in June at the Mayor of Barnsley’s Civic Service. He was warm, kind and full of character.
A true legend of cricket and a proud son of Barnsley who never forgot his roots. Rest in peace, Dickie.

This morning I had the honour of leading Doncaster’s remembrance for the 80th Anniversary of VJ Day in Sir Nigel Gresley Square.
Pipers played the Lament as the VJ flag was raised, followed by a 2 minute silence at noon to mark the end of the Second World War in the Far East.
We will remember them.

Had a great afternoon with the Armthorpe 32nd Scouts as they celebrated 100 years of adventure, learning, and community spirit.
A huge well done to all the leaders past and present, and to every young person who’s been part of the group over the years.
Here’s to the next 100!
