Congratulations to George Flint and Sian Doble on their recent engagement.

It is with great sadness that we have to announce the passing of Robin Wyatt and Olga Johnston.

Robin was President of CUDOS for several years and he and Heather have been very supportive of CUDOS in many ways, for many years.

Olga was a member of Crewkerne Players also CUDOS, for very many years, in recognition being awarded Life Membership by the Players. An excellent actress who also served on the Committee and as Chairman.

They will both be greatly missed and we send our condolences to Heather and family and to Olga’s family. You are in our thoughts.
