The Society & its Objectives

The W&S Society encourages everyone to become involved in our community, whether through joining a society, volunteering or simply joining in the many activities Warborough and Shilllingford has to offer.

It only costs £5 to join the Society, as a “lifetime member” and volunteers to join our small Committee are always welcome!

We organise talks on topics of general interest, host quiz nights and other social events, arrange regular “litter-picks” to keep our verges tidy and support other activities that help preserve and protect our beautiful villages.  We also run a village archive, to capture and share the history of Warborough & Shillingford.

Details of any up-coming events are published in the village magazine and on notice boards around the villages.  You do not have to be a member to come along!

We are keen to support all new activities and projects in W&S, so if you need help or have an idea about something new for everyone to enjoy, contact us and we’ll see if we can help!
