She goes at the invitation of the Bishop of Lourdes to act as an adviser to those concerned with the reception and teaching of children at the Shrine.

This is just a reminder more specifically for our customers from abroad who may wish to purchase items in time for Christmas that it takes approx 6 weeks for goods to arrive via airmail to USA, Canada and Australia. We don't know what happens or why the goods take so long but please be aware of this so you can order in time.

We, at the Julian Centre, would like to wish Fr David all the very best in his new job at Watford. We are sad to see him go, our loss is Watford's gain. We are certain he will give the best of himself in the challenges which lie ahead. Wishing him every happiness.
P.S Come back and see us sometimes!

A plaque dedicating the bridge to Julian's memory was unveiled at the Riverside end of the bridge. The mayor was joined by Sister Pamela and Sister Violet of All Hallows Convent, who had proposed the name for the bridge in a competition held earlier this year.
