The Guild held a lovely Annual Service on 2nd May at St Lawrence Jewry followed by supper at Wax Chandlers Hall. The service was led by the Guild's Honorary Chaplain, the Dean of St Paul's, and Canon David Parrott. The choir of King Edward's School Witley once again enthralled us with their singing at the altar. The choir joined us at Wax Chandlers Hall for refreshments and the Master presented the Guild's donation to the school. After the reception we enjoyed a fine supper - by candlelight, of course! The Master's speaker, Emily Thomas Governor of HMP ISIS, gave a thought-provoking speech about the rehabilitation of prisoners.
