President’s message

This year is unique in the history of the club, the first time that we have had three joint presidents! Stephanie, Shirley and Denise are once again delighted to offer their services to the club as presidents and have chosen as their theme for the year, Interesting People, Interesting Lives.

 Our hope for the Club during this year is to continue with the fun, fellowship and friendship that is special to Soroptimism. We extend a warm welcome for other Clubs in our Region to come and join us. As a small club we see working in partnership as being a key element in working together on fund raising and social events.

Our club currently supports Birchen Coppice Primary School, the local charity Wyre Forest Nightstop and several others as and when they arise. We give hands on service as well as raising much needed funds for a variety of organisations. We have supported the Regional Project, “Fresh Start Uganda” helping to build much needed accommodation for disadvantaged girls in Uganda and helping them gain skills, increase their confidence and find work in their communities.
