Christmas lunch off

THE Christmas Day lunch at Sonning Common village hall has been cancelled because of the coronavirus pandemic.

Instead, a team of volunteers will be distributing Christmas treat boxes to 100 villagers.

Each box will have a selection of Christmas puddings, chocolates, preserves, tinned goods, drinks and savoury items as well as a Christmas card designed by young people from the village youth club.    

Diana Pearman, editor of Sonning Common magazine, said: “Our plan this Christmas is to celebrate what we have and not what we are missing.”
