BBC Radio Leicester are running a series called Secret Leicestershire & Rutland. Presenter Ben Jackson will be visiting various historic sites around the region. On 4th February at 2.40 PM the episode will feature Wing Maze. Ben Jackson interviewed David Seviour who provided some context and insight into one of Wing’s historic landmarks.

As hopefully many of you will be aware, the village hall has had a resurgence of successful events over the past couple of years under the guidance of Tracy Moores and her fabulous team of creative hard working village volunteers.  Tracy is taking a well deserved step back and handing over to Helen Eskdale, who is taking on the role as the new Village Hall events coordinator, although she will directing the next big event; Mardi Gras on the 8^th March so expect the usual frolics.

Helen has previously organised motorcycling charity events, stage managed for the Shoestring Theatre company in Stamford and coordinated large corporate away-days, so she hopes to bring her skills to support the creative team that is already in place and who make our events so much fun. Together with Sharon Milner who proposed the idea; Helen and various enthusiastic village volunteers put on the Wing Christmas Family day in December, which was much enjoyed and very well received by parents and children.  There have already been requests for a children’s summer event so you never know….

It would be fantastic to see different types of potentially smaller events in the Village Hall that help groups within our community to come together and enjoy our life in Wing.
