Please remember him, his family, friends, fellow priests and all the parishioners of St. John Fisher Parish and Primary School as he returns home to the Eternal Kingdom of God our Father. Funeral Arrangements: Wednesday 28th December 2022

Refreshments will be served in the parish hall after both masses. Family flowers only. May Canon Acton Rest in Peace and Rise in Glory We have to vacate the shop by the end of the year. We have also received official confirmation that our landlords applied to the local Council to demolish all the shops on the parade and have therefore terminated our lease.
