Soroptimists in Lockdown

Our last meeting was on March 17th, just before Lockdown began, but we have not been idle in the last three months.

Our main focus has been to help Urban Outreach make up their donation boxes to Bolton families who have lost their jobs.

Jane has collected tins and packages from members who are isolating at home, Ann and her fellow allotment holders have distributes fresh fruit and vegetables that have grown abundantly in the sunny months of April and May and other members have donated funds.

When Jane signed up for helping to make up the boxes she had not anticipated having to go through boxes of fresh produce donated by local supermarkets to separate the useful items from those that were past their best. But like a good Soroptimist she stuck to her task.
