Ten members attended the SIGBI Conference and had a very interesting and sociable conference which ended in us wilnning the Best Practice Award in the Health Section for Singing for Memory. Well done to everyone , particularly Janice! We heard about other club’s projects and from inspiring keynote speakers including Michael Kaufman talking about the causes of male violence against women. Two inspirational speakers were Mandy Hickson one of the first female RAF Tornado pilots and Dame Katherine Grainger, Olympic Gold medallist. We also saw the installation of our new Regional President Maureen Howarth and Federation President Sue Biggs who is from our Region. An excellent Conference, renewing friendships, making new friends and returning inspired!
