A big change for the Diocese of Bath & Wells: the Bishop, the Rt Revd Peter Price, is retiring at the end of the month. Everyone in the Diocese is invited to the farewell service for him in Wells Cathedral on 22 June, followed by a picnic (see page 15). Do read his farewell message on page 3, too.
The summer programme of activities really gets going now, with a Community Lunch on 23 June (page 15), a wildlife hunt in Brewham churchyard (page 19), and a new children’s swimming club (page 21) as well as an adults’ golf society (page 17) being set up. The concert of Baroque music originally scheduled for 9 June is postponed to 7 July (page 25), and will be a delightful experience in Sexey’s Hospital’s 17th-century chapel.
