A Wesley Guild was formed in the early 1900s with
Misses Mary and Grace Farndale, active workers, and Mr W Hedley as energetic
secretary for many years. This formed a great part of the church’s life, often
the schoolhouse being filled to capacity each Thursday evening in the winter.
Concert parties from Middlesbrough and aroudn are well remembered. The grand
leadership of Mr Hedley played a big part in the enjoyment and thrill of the
Guild. How he cared for the young folk was shown for instance in the times he
took them in his little car to his home to share in parties and family fellowship.
During the years of the great depression 1921 to 1932 free concerts were held
to help the men, and many happy nights were spent in the schoolroom with Mr
Hedley as main organiser.
