Lady Day At Great Wishford, 1985

From the Wylye Valley Life magazine, Issue No.23, Friday 5 April 1985:

Nearly sixty members of the Wylye and Wilton Deanery Mothers’ Union gathered in the Parish Church of Saint Giles at Wishford Magna on the 25th of March for a service to celebrate Lady Day.

The service was conducted by the Rev. John Adams of Stapleford and included the admission of a new member to the branch of Wishford Mothers’ Union.

The collection was taken by Codford Mothers’ Union.

After the service, refreshments were served by the Wishford Branch in Wishford School.

Wilton Mothers’ Union organised a competition; and Wylye and the Langfords Mothers’ Union ran a bring and buy stall.

All the profits from the evening were for the Mothers’ Union Overseas Special Relief Fund which helps in disaster areas.
