Crosby Soroptimist Pat Williams received the surprise of her life.<\/h5>\n

\"\"<\/a>President Margaret Davidson announced that Pat was to receive Honorary Life Membership of the club. Given for \u2018distinguished service\u2019 this is a very special award \u2013 being given to a very special woman.<\/p>\n

Pat\u2019s commitment to SI Crosby and wider Soroptimism has seen her take on various club roles, including President. Over many years she has also undertaken responsibilities in SI South Lancashire Region, including Membership Officer and \u2013 currently \u2013 Treasurer.<\/p>\n

Pat took to heart the need to keep everyone \u2018involved\u2019 during Covid years, and to maintain a spirit of optimism. She therefore put the club’s newsletter into overdrive. With content supplemented by fellow members, Pat ensured that each month’s edition really was a \u2018good read\u2019.<\/p>\n

There was information on local shops offering deliveries to shielded members, health tips and reports on Zoom events. Programme Action updates included at-home craft projects, \u2018pamper\u2019 gifts for hospice staff and the telephone \u2018buddy\u2019 scheme. Jokes, quizzes, puzzles, recipes, poems, copious photos and occasional gossip provided wonderful variety.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This \u2018lifeline\u2019 was emailed to members or posted out to those not on t\u2019internet. It also went to Crosby\u2019s friendship link clubs \u2013 in Scandinavia, Australia, Italy and Yorkshire.<\/p>\n

Pat worked extremely hard during the pandemic to keep up members\u2019 spirits. For this special work \u2013 as well as for her unstinting service \u2013 Honorary Life Membership is SI Crosby\u2019s expression of thanks to an outstanding Soroptimist.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
