Our Lady of The Waters – Talk by Rachel Jenkins OBE & Fr. David Wyatt, Thursday 21 August, 7.30pm
Upstairs at The George The George, Newnham on SevernIn August 2022, a small boat carrying a wooden figure of the Virgin Mary made the national news when it set out on a 75-mile journey down the River Wye to draw attention to the disastrous pollution of the river by sewage and industrial waste. Three years later, two of the organisers reveal how the project was conceived, planned and staged, how people reacted, and the part the 'Lady of the Waters' played in the ongoing campaign to save the Wye.
