Singer Vicki Lambert is a regular visitor to Parwich, so this should be an entertaining evening.

Help Requested On Gibbs Family Information
Posted in British Legion, People on Monday January 17, 2011| 2 Comments »
We have received the following email from Carole B (nee Gibbs). Please comment or email the blog team if you have any information or can help:
Hi,
I wonder if you could help me please? My Uncle Ken tells me that there was a photo of my Grandfather Charles Gibbs on a wall in the Legion. He was in the army then so it must be very old (first world war). Do you think someone living in Parwich would help me to locate it if it is still there and email me a copy? I will gladly pay any costs, postage, printing etc. Also any pics of my Uncle Harold or any of the Gibbs family would be much appreciated.
Thank you
Poppy Appeal

Many thanks to Mick E, who has given us the following message:
A total of £972 was raised for the Poppy Appeal this year; this includes £145 that was collected at the service and the Legion at last year’s St Georges Day Parade.

Thank you to JFS for these two photos: the first in St Peter’s Church Yard when this morning’s service moved out to the War Memorial for the two minutes silence and the Last Post.
And the second at the Legion afterwards.
