Wootton Heritage Organisation (known as WHO) puts on a lively programme of talks on historical topics, often on subjects of local interest. We also run the annual May Festival. The profits from these activities go to local charities.
We meet in Wootton Memorial Hall on the third Wednesday of each month except when there are other seasonal events or holidays e.g. August and December.
Everyone is welcome, so just pop along to one of the events taking place in the coming months - we'd love to meet you.
