St Columba’s United Reformed Church is adding its support to the town’s football team on their trip to Wembley for the final of the FA Vase on Saturday 9 May. The railings and windows along the front of the church have been decorated with bunting in the team’s colour, red, and pictures drawn by our young people. Do have a look at the decorations if you’re passing through Northumberland Square this week.
Postscript: They won 2-1. Watch the highlights on YouTube
