A Community Showcase was held in the Church on 5th September. Organised by the Parish Council and aided by the Church Warden, Tina Sitwell, it was a huge success. The church was crammed full of tables advertising all the activities, organisations, artisans, and groups that make up our villages. Our Member of Parliament, Dr Andrew Murrison spent all afternoon chatting and answering questions; Wiltshire Council was represented by Councillor Bill Parks, and three police officers were available to listen to our concerns and offer advice. Members of the Woolstore Theatre were there in costumes and Moni Williams of Tytherington was encouraging people to arrange flowers with a magnificent array from her garden.
