Wendover Christmas Celebration
Wendover Parish Council was really in the swing with the Christmas Celebration on Wednesday 4 December. A very friendly Christmas Market, Halton Singers, Mix 96, prizes, John Colet School musicians and Late Night Shopping is clearly a winning mixture. For more stories from the night, please see page 20 and Matters Arising page 32.

Lionel Abel-Smith Trust
The Trust was established in 1977 when Lionel Abel-Smith, Lord of the Manor of Wendover, gave the village a number of properties in Pound Street. His wish was that the rental income 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 42nd Annual Meeting on Wednesday 29 April 2020 to consider grant applications from individuals and organisations from within the parish of Wendover and the Moor Park Estate. Applications must be received by Friday 28 February with full contact details and, if possible, email address to: clerk@ wendovertrust.org or Clerk to the Trust, 51 Dobbins Lane, Wendover Bucks HP22 6DL. For details go to www.wendovertrust.org. Grants can be made for real need throughout the year.
