First Saturday Lunch
The lunches in the church held on the first Saturday of each month have provided a very good opportunity for fund raising in aid of different charities. There is a charity stall at each lunch stocked and run by Newnham residents the proceeds of which go to a different charity every month. The stalls are an added attraction for lunch-goers, selling cakes, books, plants, bric-a-brac or any combination.

Glevum Consort
25 June 2010 at 8:00pm
The Glevum Consort is delighted to be invited to perform in the Lydney Festival for the third time.
As in previous years, the programme will be based around the music of the Renaissance and will feature this season’s collection of sacred choral music from Italy and the Iberian peninsula. With Palestrina’s exquisite Missa Papae Marcelli as the centrepiece of the concert, the Consort will highlight some of the extraordinary musical output from Italy, Portugal and Spain during this period, from the beautifully crafted motets of Iberian composers Victoria and Lobo to grand works from the Venetian tradition.
Tickets at £8.00 are available from Newnham Post Office or call the Box Office on 01594 842180
