A SERVICE of thanksgiving to celebrate the completion of work to Evesham's bell tower is taking place with everyone welcome to attend.

All Saint's parochial church council has organised the service at the church at 11.30am on Saturday April 23.

The event is to give thanks and appreciation to all involved in the fund-raising, planning, funding and careful restoration of the bell tower.

A re-opening and plaque installation ceremony has been planned for a later date when all the scaffolding has been removed.
