The impact of the Tysoe Record stretches far and wide! As well as reaching current residents in the Tysoe Parish, copies are also mailed to former Tysoe residents now moved away. It has been fascinating to hear their stories like the lasting friendship of Arleen and Nicky forged at Tysoe School in 1959, see p31. Many, like Rosemary Gardner, as quoted in the April issue, still consider Tysoe to be their ‘home’ village.

The Record wishes to thank Heather Walkey, who many readers may recall used to teach at Kineton High School, for her generous donation which was used to cover printing the ‘Collection of Poems’ to give to people isolating in and around Tysoe at Easter.

We are gathering in this year’s subscriptions. It would help us enormously if you could pay any outstanding subs due, either by BACs or cash, so we can balance our books and focus our attention on producing great issues of the Record for the rest of the year.
