Friendship Group Invites YOU to a great evening out

Maidenhead URC runs a very successful and vibrant friendship group and the question has arisen

  "What is a friendship group, and what do they do?"

Well. this particular group started out quite a few years ago as a young mothers group and over the years transformed itself as other people joined and husbands came along too, to meet and have a social evening that includes guest speakers, quizzes, short walks and rambles, visits to various stately homes and other places of interest, and attending theatre productions and shows.

currently we have an attendance of about forty people when we meet on the first and third Wednesday of each month.

The meetings generally take place in the church hall and begin at 8pm.

We have had some very interesting speakers over the past year who have entertained us with talks and slide shows, films and music, even aviation.

Talk on Riding for the Disabled

21 April 2010

I SAW A CHILD

I saw a child who couldn’t walk,

Sit on a horse, laugh and talk.

Then ride it through a field of daisies

And yet he could not walk unaided.

I saw a child no legs below,

Sit on a horse, and make it go

Through wood of green and places he had never been to sit and stare

Except from a chair.

I saw a child who could only crawl,

Mount a horse and sit up tall;

Then put it through degrees of paces

And laugh at the wonder in our faces
