You are a member of one of the oldest and most successful running clubs in the South West of England. It was as early as the 1920s that the villagers of Westbury on Trym began to meet on a field (which is now a car park) in order to run together. On 8th February 1924, Westbury Harriers was officially born. The Westbury crest, which is worn proudly on all club vests was the crest of Bishop John Carpenter, a native of Westbury on Trym, who was elected See of Worcester in 1448. During his term of Office, Bishop Carpenter decreed that he would not only be Bishop of Worcester but also of Westbury! The crest bears the words “Pari Passu” meaning “on equal footing”, a spirit which we hope you will enjoy and share with your fellow clubmates and runners.
