Take That surprise Catherine Waterman
Signs appeared warning that the High Street would be closed for 10 minutes on Wednesday 28 November. Wendover was taken by surprise when Gary Barlow, Mark Owen and Howard Donald of Take That invaded with camera crew at the ready to surprise our own Catherine Waterman of The Flower Gallery, as part of a commercial for Suzuki. It had its first showing during The Voice on ITV on Saturday 5 January, including a session with the lads paticipating in one of Catherine’s Zumba classes.

Lionel Abel-Smith Trust
The Trust was established in 1977 when Lionel Abel-Smith, then Lord of the Manor of Wendover, gave to the village a number of properties in Pound Street. His wish was that the rental income should be used to support organisations and individuals in Wendover. Over the years, more than £1.5 million has been awarded in grants and loans. The Trustees will hold their 41st Annual Meeting on Wednesday 3 April 2019 to consider grant applications from individuals and organisations from within the parish of Wendover and the Moor Park Estate.
