Another extremely successful Wakes Week is over and thanks must go to everyone who took part, spectators, participants, organisers and helpers, but without the hard work of the committee who meet, plan and co-ordinate the events we wouldn’t have this amazing week. So special thanks to Kerry Allsop, Janet Bainbridge, Sandra Chadfield, Roger Cundy, Liz Edge, Denis Laycock, Alan & Barbara Lowes, Paula Lynam, Sharon Swindell and Karen Wigley.
Next year’s Wakes begins on Saturday 30th June 2012.
The rest of this article contains all the Wakes posts and is a shortcut to any event or photo you may have missed. (more…)

A big “Happy Birthday To You” Jacqui from all your friends in and around Parwich!
Your 1940s themed birthday party at the Legion was a brilliant success! You and the other organisers put so much effort into the decorations, the music and of course the amazing costumes. A great time was had by all.
