Having sometimes struggled to collect photos and information about events that took place in Alderley in the past, this year there will be plenty of photos and articles and while its still fresh in our minds, as a history group we will create an account of Alderley in lockdown. There are many initiatives of keeping people connected , photos of nature, accounts of what we did during lockdown, etc. Please collect and keep and we will add it to our archives.
2020 will be infamous for along time to come.
September meeting.
We were due to welcome Sue Appleton to our Heritage centre on 21st September. We will postpone this meeting and reschedule for 2021.
At present we can not use St Philip & St James Church for our meetings.
