ST FRANCIS Church held its annual Picnic in the Park in Victoria Park in Salisbury to celebrate 80 years of community life.

During the afternoon, the park was transformed into a glorious picnic with a wide variety of entertainment available, including games, bouncy castles and clowns and live music from the Band of the Army Air Corp.

During the autumn, St Francis Church will bring a special programme of events to celebrate the anniversary of the formation of the parish in 1930.
