in January, the Archdeacon of the Meon, Ven Gavin Collins left the diocese to become Bishop of
Dorchester (Diocese of Oxford). He has been a stalwart supporter and a kind and wise friend to our
benefice – not least to churchwardens and all those involved in building regulations and faculty
applications.
The Bishop has appointed Canon Will Hughes to be Acting Archdeacon of the Meon. Working closely
with the two other Archdeacons, who share with him legal responsibilities in the coming months, Will
continues as parish priest in Petersfield and Buriton.

The theme for 2021 is Rebuilding Hope and Confidence. We are still in the grip of
the Covid pandemic and, although some of our members have received
vaccinations, it looks being a while before we can meet as before. Our AGM will be
via zoom on Tuesday 9th February when we will be able to discuss opportunities for
helping more families later this year.
Thank You Key Workers Appeal
Mothers' Union is running a scheme to say thank you to Key Workers in the UK and
Ireland, who have given so much to keep us safe and well. We have secured funding
to provide activity hampers, experience days and short breaks to Key Workers and
their families. We wish to thank those who have made sacrifices of quality family
time during these difficult days. If you would like to nominate someone, or you are a
key worker and wish to apply to the scheme, please visit www.mothersunion.org or

have followed with interest and maybe
horror the incidence of modern slavery
that was brought to light in Ambridge.
Having read Louise Hulland’s book on
the subject, I felt it was portrayed
accurately and it highlighted just what is going on, even in the UK. If all your
knowledge of human trafficking and modern slavery is from news reports, as was
mine until recently, then you may have been shocked. The majority of victims in
Britain today are not trafficked from other countries, but British Citizens. They are
not hidden away in locked rooms: they’re in plain sight, in nail bars, hotels and car
washes, on construction sites and farms. This is a multibillion-pound industry.
What should you do if you come across a homeless person who has been exploited?
If appropriate, talk to them and ask how you can help and/or call the Modern Slavery
Helpline on 08000 121 700. Mothers’ Union is working with the Clewer Initiative to
end modern slavery by 2030. One key area of focus is to create national and local
advocacy campaigns that members and others can get involved in to raise
awareness of the subject. For more information on what constitutes modern slavery
and how you can help, visit www.theclewerintitiative.org

Chilled Art
It is with great sadness I have to write that Margaret
Spence, one of our most talented artists, and her
husband have died from the Covid-19 virus. Margaret
was really incredible artist; she could mix the exact colour
for her work with consummate ease. Then paint a
beautiful picture of flowers, fruits, vegetables, landscapes
or seascapes. We never tired of seeing what she could
produce in the relatively short Chilled Art sessions. She
will be sorely missed. I have included a photo of Margaret
at work last year.
Sara Chris
Well still in lockdown but we still have some work to share with you. Sara has produced a
gorgeous abstract landscape. Chris has at least three projects on the go; two seascapes
can be seen on her easel. Lyn has also painted a stunning seascape that brightened my
day when I saw it. I’ve just done a horse galloping through stormy weather; I suppose
that is how I feel at present!
Patricia Lyn
Let us hope the vaccine roll out goes as planned and things get back to some
normality soon.

House 54
It was no stately home or a big cottage thatched
But a three up, two down home, where memories hatched.
Four kids lived there, one girl and three brothers
A man who worked hard and a beautiful mother.
While the children were sleeping one night it occurred
A new baby girl came and entered the herd.
Susan Jane Lillian lay there on the bed.
Dad was heard to remark “Gotta keep this lot fed”.
“Where to sleep everyone?” said Mum looking to heaven.
Two bedrooms, a box room. Quite cosy for seven.
Jim had the box room ‘cos he was the oldest.
The others the back room which always was coldest.
Sue slept in a drawer by her mummy and dad.
We were all quite comfy. It wasn’t too bad.
The bathroom was freezing despite the oil stove
But whatever the hardships we had lots of love.
One day when the parents were out on the town
Dave, the inventor, cut bannisters down.
He thought that the open-plan look was the thing
but when mother caned him, it didn’t half sting
We’re now grown-up people with families to nurture.
Mum and Dad did their best to get us to the future.
Of all of my memories, I can’t treasure more
The love, life and laughter at house 54
