St Thomas' church, Winchelsea wore purple on Wednesday October 24 for World Polio Day, following the lead set by Canterbury cathedral last year. Purple is the signature colour of Rotary's End Polio Now campaign which aims to rid the world of polio for ever.
After tea at the Court Hall, we gathered in front of the Church where Rector Revd Jonathan Meyer flicked the switch which bathed the front of the Church in purple light. The lights were donated by YESSS and installed at their own expense by R & S Paine electricians.
As darkness gathered the true beauty of the lighting became apparent. We are
grateful to everyone who supported the event.
