Coffee and Cake in the Church
On the first and third Mondays of each month come and enjoy home-made cake and coffee in Spetisbury Church from 10-11.30 am. All are welcome.
Do you fancy a freshly made, home-baked cake without having to do it yourself? The two Lisas at BethellBridge Bakery offer really delicious coffee, chocolate, lemon curd, lemon drizzle and Victoria sponge cakes for only £6 - many other types available on request.
You can pick up your pre-ordered cake on Thursdays at the Corn Exchange indoor market in Blandford or from Lisa's home in Salisbury Street, Blandford.
They also provide buffets, birthday and wedding cakes, Dorset hampers, cupcakes, business lunches, cream teas and funeral teas.
Order on bethellbridge@gmx.com or phone 07762 497 776 or 07557 643 572.

Bell Ringing
The bell ringing band at Spetisbury Church would love to teach you to ring out the bells. We practice at 7.30 to 9pm on Wednesday evenings. There is no cost involved and tea and biscuits plus plenty of laughter is provided for all comers.
It’s a great hobby for all ages – no previous experience or ringing skills required. There are opportunities to meet other groups of ringers and enjoy ringing at other churches.
