WE welcomed Valerie Megan to our October meeting who enlightened us on how law enforcement had evolved in Evesham over the years. She had tales of local policemen discovered from researching the archives Our local Harvington ‘Bobby’ was nicknamed ‘Redbeard’ having grown the large beard to keep his face warm as he policed the Lenches and us, all on foot! His, and the subsequent police house in the village have long since been sold off for private houses. Next month we have a short AGM and then a talk from Vale Wildlife Hospital. Our coach trip to Waddesden Manor to see it lit for Christmas later in November is now fully booked. Keeping with the festive theme, details were finalised for our Christmas meal to The Broom Hall on December 7. For more details of our meetings please contact: phoenixladiesharvington@gmail.com
