Salisbury Cathedral Festival of Flowers
A team from St Osmunds are representing the church at the Salisbury Cathedral Festival of Flowers which is open from today until Sunday 15th May. Our team, led By Mary-Ann Farmer with Margaret Clark, Judy Pickford and Kath Smith have put a great deal of effort in to preparing the exhibition.
We are reliably informed by parishioners that the exhibition is absolutely fabulous and well worth the ticket price for entry. If you would like to book a ticket and go along, you can do so at:

Additionally, each day a number of 'non-ticket holder' entries are being permitted - simply go along to the Cathedral and go to the 'Non-ticket holder' entrance point.
The exhibits that have been prepared by our parishioners are being removed from the Cathedral and placed in St Osmund's church during next week after the event is broken down on Sunday evening - so if you don't manage to get to the Cathedral you can still see our contribution to the event.
