Rotary Community Songs of Praise showcases local talent

Over 100 people enjoyed a wonderful afternoon of music, song and poetry at St Edmund’s Church on Sunday May 26th, as part of Shipston ‘Woolly Weekend’.

The Mayor, Dan Scobie, and Rotary President, Graham Thomas, read poems. 

Catherine Packer from Shipston High School, Alec Banner from Shipston Junior Band, Aliya Bartlett, Caitlin Clemons and Chloe Spencer from Shipston Youth Club, along with Helen and Hannah Porter, Noel Nickerson and the Shipston Rotary Singers (Nigel Willis and Thomas Slinger) all gave some amazing musical and choral performances.

Shipston Community groups chose hymns and read poems to help make it such a memorable afternoon - which was rounded off with tea and delicious homemade cakes.
