Badby & Fawsley WI celebrates its Centenary with a gift to the Community

Posted on February 17, 2019 by

To celebrate its Centenary (1918-2018) Badby & Fawsley WI decided to mark the occasion by providing a bench for the Community to enjoy. On Friday, February 15, 2019, President Kathy Day, assisted by former President Kate Earley, cut the ribbon with members of the WI and Parish Council looking on. The Parish Council erected the bench on the village green by Chapel Lane, a popular spot for walkers returning from Badby woods.
