Mary Clow and Neil Rees represented The Tyndale Society at the Lollard Martyrs' Play in the parish church at Old Amersham, Buckinghamshire. This told the story of the Amersham Tudor Lollards. The church was transformed into a 16th century scene with actors dressed in period costume, speaking 16th century English, reading the scriptures in English and going about their lives, being arrested and put on trial. It brought the whole story alive.

The Revd Dr Ralph Werrell sadly passed away at Lichfield on 3rd July 2020, aged 91. He was an expert on the theology of William Tyndale, emphasising the Lollard tradition which was behind his work. He wrote a number of books about him which were published by James Clarke & Co. and lectured on the subject round the world. He was a key member of the Tyndale Society who helped to organise conferences and will be sadly missed.
