Just a reminder about the Ryde Civic Service tonight, hosted jointly by Ryde Town Council and Churches Together in the Ryde Area, to which everyone is welcome.
It starts at 7pm, in Garfield Road Methodist Church, and will focus on the Voluntary and Community Sector of Ryde.
The Ven. Karen Schmidt, Archdeacon of the Isle of Wight, will say a few words, along with presentations from Ryde Inshore Rescue, Historic Ryde Society, Oakfield School Choir and Ryde House.
There will also be a ceremonial handing over of the Town Council regalia, from the old Mayor, Cllr David Knowles, to the new, Cllr David Woodward.
There are displays on Ryde’s past in the church hall from Historic Ryde Society and Ryde Social Heritage Group, where refreshments will be available.
