Wardie Guild

By Pawel Czerwinski

With an emphasis on friendship and support for each other (and plenty of coffee and cake!), the Guild welcomes a wide range of speakers on subjects serious and light hearted, supports charities, and keeps true to its founding purpose to honour God, ‘whose we are and whom we serve’.

We meet nearly every two weeks on Wednesday mornings throughout the year.

Unless otherwise stated, Guild meetings are held in the Main Hall of Wardie Parish Church, Netherby Road, at 10.30am (coffee from 10.15am).

Do come along to any of our meetings. There is no requirement to be a member of the Guild. ALL are welcome.
