Wine Tasting in the Church 22nd March

Following the great success of our church event with Steven in October, we held another interesting event.  Toppesfield Vineyard is a small boutique vineyard run by Jane and Peter Moore came to Chelsworth Church on Friday 22 March to offer us the opportunity to learn more about wine production in Essex, and, most importantly, to host a wine tasting, enabling us to sample the white, rose and sparkling wines which they produce in their Essex vineyard.
Their  talk was fascinating and informative and in a style which kept everyone captivated from start to finish. We learned so much about the winemaking process and their journey to producing award-winning wines. It was a privilege to sample the delicious wines and we were all very impressed at the quality.

20th October

My Life in Clocks by Steven Davidson

64 villagers and friends gathered in the church for a very enjoyable social event. We are very grateful to Steven who gave a fascinating and entertaining talk “My Life In Clocks”.  The audience was captivated from beginning to end.

The evening was a great success, with excellent pizzas supplied by Shikha Shak and a few glasses of wine. Thanks to everyone for their generous support.  After costs, we will be sending £500 to DrugFAM. 

It was a great evening and huge thanks are also due to our amazing village clockmakers - of the floral variety!  Christine and Lizzie really did produce a most imaginative arrangement, based on metalwork by Bob, to complement the evening.
