Four of us have been at Swanwick for three days with 300+ delegates from Britain and Northern Ireland, and speakers from around the world.

We enjoyed very thoughtful talks, workshops, debates, worship and each other's company.

We look forward to sharing the results with you all, as well as Mothers Union members in the diocese.

With love from your local correspondent,
Sarah Condry
