10th Anniversary Cultural Exchange with Warsaw -

Seven Soroptimists from Warsaw celebrated 10 years of the friendship link with the St Albans Soroptimists when they visited. They stayed with members of the club to absorb British culture. Over the weekend they explored St Albans, and everyone became firm friends. Pictured on the left are hands of friendship across a specially made friendship plate signed by everyone. Club members from SI St Albans have also visited their Soroptimist sisters in Warsaw.
