Sadly the weather forecast is for heavy rain at 6pm once again this year. We will therefore move the annual Carols on the Green to the Village Hall. We will start at 6pm and mulled wine, mince pies and hot sausage rolls will be served throughout. Please tell your friends and neighbours to come to the village hall instead.
Don't forget that Carols on the Green in Upper Wardington are next Thursday, 19th December from 6 to 6:45pm. Come and join us for mince pies and sausage rolls, mulled wine and hot chocolate. The Wardington Hand Bell Ringers will be coming again this year and our regular brass players, the Mackenzie-Lawrie boys will be with us as usual. We will be collecting for the Friends of St. Mary Magdalene so please bring along all of your loose change and give as generously as you can. Our church costs over £1,000 per month to keep going and we really need your support in looking after this wonderful building in the heart of our community. Even if you're not a church-goer,
