President Margaret Davidson has welcomed a new Soroptimist to the Crosby club.
Abby Younis is a financial crime consultant by profession, and a supporter of women’s issues by inclination. She recently came to a Crosby club meeting as a guest speaker. Following that, Abby decided to become a Soroptimist.
Abby founded the ‘Women Conquering Cancer’ fundraising campaign. This aims to raise funds for a Mona Lisa laser for the Women’s Hospital, Liverpool. The equipment will enable life-changing treatment for women suffering from uro-genital disorders following natural or surgical menopause.
This very new Soroptimist has already been active. At the 2022 conference, organised by SI South Lancashire Region, Abby stepped in when a speaker had to pull out of the programme.
President Margaret also had the pleasure of congratulating Jill Boggan on her momentous drive to Ukraine. Jill and her co-driver were the ‘Girl Power’ team, setting an example that several other women are due to follow.
