The Mayor of Swindon admiring the work on display at our Traditions exhibition at Lydiard House. We were so thrilled that she agreed to open the exhibition, and Sophie has reported that there have been lots of visitors. We also feature heavily on Lydiard Houses Facebook page... see Here..
It will be worth keeping an eye on the Facebook page as some of the exhibits will be featured. The peg doll trail we made for the children visitors to the house, has already been featured on FB.
GWE was formed in 2007 to serve the Swindon and North Wiltshire areas of the country. We are a very local group and we meet in the daytime at a venue in Cricklade, .
