Five small Salisbury gatherings in the first half of 2026

A wassail, an almshouse open afternoon, a lecture, a pantry tour, and an archive evening.

The Charity runs no fundraising events. The five gatherings below are the small free occasions on which we open our doors — and the doors of our partners — to anyone in the two parishes (and beyond) who would like to meet us in person.

A small gathering at dusk in the Wilton Road allotments around an old apple tree, mulled cider in mugs, gentle frost on the ground.

A note on capacity

All our gatherings are free. We accept retiring collections at the trustees' lecture only. The archive evening is limited to thirty places, and tends to fill within a fortnight; the others have ample room. If a gathering is full, the Clerk will write to let you know in good time.
