The Church Service

As in all previous years, the main Gala day has been officially opened by the Mayor of Charnwood and started with a combined Church Service from Churches Together in Birstall and Wanlip.

This year, Revd James Shakespeare led the service including a reading from Roger Wilson.

Thank you to all involved.
