Hello
I haven't posted anything lately, but that's not to say we haven't been busy!
We dont have a meeting in September, the idea being to give the committee a month off, but I can assure you that never happens!
Instead, we, in collaboration with MHA, Rothwell, put on a free Afternoon Tea Party for 60 members of our community. RRTWI contributed all the food and a number of our members prepared and served it. MHA provided the raffle and a singer, Rachel, to entertain our guests. All in all, a lovely afternoon.
It was also the Rothwell Autumn Fair in September and, as usual, we had a stall selling cakes & preserves in Rothwell Methodist Church Hall. A great afternoon and the money raised not only helps RRT's but also a local charity (more on that in coming months).
We are very proud to be doing something quite special for Rememberence Day this year, at the Cenotaph in Rothwell. Not quite finished yet, but lots of our members have been busy working on it over the past few months and we're almost done. Please keep an eye open, from 8th November, to see what we have done.
It's now October (where has this year gone???) And our meetings have resumed. Our Speaker this month was Simon Michael, author of 11 published books. So good! He was both entertaining and interesting and everyone present has asked for him to come back next year.
Our membership now stands at 60 members and still growing. I can honestly say I have never come across a more caring and lovely group of women.
Our next meeting is on 20 November. We are at St Mary's Catholic Church Hall (LS26 0EP). The doors open at 6.30pm. Why not come along as a guest (£5) and meet us? The Air Ambulance are coming along to tell us all about the fabulous work they do.
All the very best
June
