Our Lady of Lourdes, Wanstead E11 2PR, has recently had a new pipe organ installed. Its a 2 manual, 18 stop built by Robin Jennings.

Sw to Pd, Gt to Pd, Sw to Gt
Mechanical action throughout.

The SSG members at Our Lady's invite us to an inaugural recital on Friday 4th March at 7:30 py by Geoffrey Morgan (Christchurch Priory). It will be followed by refreshments in the Parish Pastoral Centre (Retiring Collection in aid of the Organ Fund)
