"Show the Love" on Valentine's Day saw Towcester Evening WI at Towcester Farmers' Market. A heartily sung rendition of Jerusalem at 11am caught the attention of passers-by and helped spread the message on our concerns over climate change and promoting the campaigning side of our wonderful WI organisation.

Many thanks to member, Val Goldfinch, Towcester Evening WI, for lending her brilliant Green Heart artwork and to Gemma at Zap and Toes for displaying it so well in their shop window.
This will help the WI to promote the The Climate Coalition Show the Love event taking place in Towcester on 14 February.
