Wardington Village Cinema – Joy – Friday 27th May

Please join us on Friday 27th May when we are screening the amazing true story of Joy Magano a self-made millionaire who created her own business empire!

We look forward to seeing you all there, don't forget you are welcome to bring your own food and drink, but you also still receive a free ice cream in the half time interval! There is also a raffle and prize

Campaign for Village Asset status – The Old Horse Pond (opposite Chapel Cottages)

In the Wardington Parish Community Led Plan, published in 2015, there is mention on page 5 of proposed plans to develop, do improvement works to, and provide a bench at The Old Horse Pond, opposite Chapel Cottages, in order that it may be enjoyed by villagers. Earlier this year a fence was erected in front of the pond thereby including it within private property, and effectively removing access to it from the general public, meaning the above plans can not be enacted.

Call My Wine Bluff 2016 – Sat 7th May.

The Friends of St Mary Magdalene are delighted to be arranging another evening of "Call My Wine Bluff"on Saturday 7th May 2016 at Wardington Memorial Hall. The evening is lighthearted and fun and involves tasting six different wines. Each wine is described by three "experts", two of whom are bluffing, and it's up to you to decide which expert (bluffer) is telling the truth. You will form into teams of six and it's a great opportunity to meet new people, have fun with old friends and have a few glasses of wine. The tasting is followed by a delicious, home-cooked supper of Cottage Pie followed by cheese, with house red and white wine available to buy by the bottle. The
