Collegio Valdese( originally Trinity College) designed by Beckwith, erected half with donations gathered by Gilly, needs extensive repairs. A substantial sum is provided by the Superintendency of Cultural Heritage, but more is needed: DONATIONS PLEASE!!!!
to the Fiaccolata( torch-lit parade) and bonfire of 16 – 17 February to mark the anniversary of the granting of civil rights to Waldensians in 1848.
I have served on the committee for the past 13 years. I enjoy maintaining the connection with the Waldensian church in Italy and take satisfaction in helping ensure the charity’ s funds are well used, particularly in bringing students in training for ministry over to the UK.
In my day job I work for the Department for Education and am based in Sheffield. I serve on the Ecumenical Church Council of my local Methodist – Anglican Local Ecumenical Partnership. My husband Alastair is also on the committee, with particular responsibility for the website. We have two kids, who are aged 8 and 10 and keep us very busy! If you would like to get in touch please email chair @ waldensian. org. uk.
