Tinwell twinning celebrations - Listen Again

Tuesday, 2 July 2024 17:32

Hubert with Tinwell villager June Dodkin

After a Cruicifix rescued by a Tinwell Vicar was returned to the community of Doingt - Flamincourt sur Somme, links have been built between the two communities. Both have begun the process of twinning, and following a visit by the Rutland Community to Doingt, the French community visited our area over the weekend.

The party of five from Doingt were treated to a tour of Peterborough Cathedral, a meal at The Crown in Stamford, a tour of Burghley House, a tour of Stamford with the Mayor's Guides, and a village party in Tinwell with traditional games and a barbeque. Prior to the village gathering, the minister from the French contingent took Mass in St Peter's Church Tinwell in both French and English.

Hear from Chaz and June from Tinwell and Hubert from Doingt on the weekend, and the building of links between the two communities:
