In the last four years I have lost count of the number of times we have been faced with an issue and the question \u2018so what can we do about it\u2019 has been asked. As Soroptimists we look at how we can change things, improve things, make things happen and I love that.\u00a0 To show that this has always been the case, and to celebrate the centenary of Soroptimism I have \u2018borrowed\u2019 my theme for this year from Violet Richardson, the founder President of Soroptimist\u2019s first club in Alameda County, USA, in 1921, \u2018It\u2019s what you <strong><em>do<\/em><\/strong> that counts\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Jackie went on to outline some of her plans and aims for the coming Soroptimist year, to focus not only on how as Soroptimists we can enable the lives of others to improve, but also to focus on looking after ourselves, particularly as the way we have all had to live over the last year has often affected our mental health and wellbeing. \u00a0It is often said in order to help others you first have to help yourself and with that in mind, her charity for this year is Inspiring Healthy Lifestyles. They are a charity working with Cannock Chase Council to provide ways of improving our health and wellbeing.\u00a0 Jackie has invited Lisa Shephard from Inspiring Healthy Lifestyles to speak at the meeting on June 8<sup>th<\/sup>.<\/p>\n<p>President Jackie and all club members are looking forward to a happy, energizing year and would be pleased to welcome to their meetings anyone interested in the organisation.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2021\/05\/Trish-S-Jackie-2-Large-e1620670408840.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-4682\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2021\/05\/Trish-S-Jackie-2-Large-e1620670408840-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2021\/05\/Trish-S-Jackie-2-Large-e1620670408840-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2021\/05\/Trish-S-Jackie-2-Large-e1620670408840-450x600.jpg 450w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2021\/05\/Trish-S-Jackie-2-Large-e1620670408840.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2021\/05\/SIGBI-Centenary-Toolkit-May-21.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4683 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2021\/05\/SIGBI-Centenary-Toolkit-May-21-300x251.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"367\" height=\"307\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2021\/05\/SIGBI-Centenary-Toolkit-May-21-300x251.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2021\/05\/SIGBI-Centenary-Toolkit-May-21.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 367px) 100vw, 367px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>Photos attached: l to r: Immediate Past President Trish Smith with Jackie Prince, President SI Cannock &amp; District 2021-22 \u2013 meeting together in a garden to actually pass on the insignia<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>2: SI May logo \u2013 Mental health awareness<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At their recent AGM, held using Zoom, Cannock Soroptimists welcomed their new President, Jackie Prince.\u00a0&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":204,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4681","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-club-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>SI Cannock New President | News | Blog | Events | SI Cannock and District<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"SI Cannock and District : Blog &amp; News : SI Cannock New President : Keep up to date with the latest news, articles and events from the Soroptimists of SI Cannock and District .
