ARTS THEATRE CLUB: At their meeting on October 15, members of the Arts Theatre Club heard an illustrated talk on Swan Rescue, given by Jan Harrigan, who started the charity some time ago at Wychbold to care for injured and sick swans found in the area. She has recently been awarded the MBE for her work and is travelling to Buckingham Palace to receive it during the coming week.

A visit to Malvern Theatre has been arranged for December 1 to see High Society. Mrs June Warner, outings secretary, reported that she had obtained tickets for a concert of Russian music at Symphony Hall for the end of January.

The next evening meeting will be in the Courtyard Room at Number 8 Community Arts Centre at 7.30pm on Friday, November 19, when the speaker will be Mr G Hartley Bennett, the title of his talk being A Fraction of the Tune. Visitors and prospective new members are welcome. Contact Mrs Dot Chapman on 01386 552989 for information.
