We are delighted to announce that Six Pack Wines are returning to the village once again for their amazing wine tasting evening.

Curtis and his team are no strangers to our community - in fact, he kept refreshed at the recent Village Party, and supported Gareth's wine tasting event last year.

Back again in September, he is looking forward to welcoming our residents once again.

Next Meeting!

We were delighted to see the community at the recent Bank Holiday Party.

Many guests expressed an interest in getting involved with the Committee - and we would love to have you - however much time you can give.

If you are interested in getting involved, now's your chance.

Come and meet us at The Swan in Stratford St Mary on Tuesday 12th May at 7pm. We'll be reflecting on the day, planning our summer programme and talking about what's next for the village and the Institute.

Very informal, very friendly, no committments. And the pub helps!
