I am honoured to be the club President for the second time.\u00a0 I promise to give you my all in the coming twelve months. I would like to thank President Kate for steering us this past year. This has been the first ‘near normal’ year post Covid and culminated in a very successful friendship weekend.<\/p>\n

Kate had reduced the committees to three:Local, International and Social.<\/p>\n

This has worked well and I therefore plan to continue with this format. Also in Kate’s year we changed the frequency\u00a0 and format of meetings. Reducing to a monthly combined supper\/business meeting has worked well, enabling committees to to meet inbetween without being too onerous. However,\u00a0 I am also aware that it leaves little time for speakers which has formed a valuable part of our educatation as to other’s endevour’s, so I am proposing that on alternate months, we keep the business side to essential information to enable a speaker to join us. This will start next month with a talk to\u00a0 about the\u00a0 Island Games. I would encourage you to continue to meet with your committees outside of these meetings to enable freindships to develop and to be able to plan your activiites.<\/p>\n

My Charity for this year is the Guernsey Community Savings Bank. This is a non-profit making charitable organisation helping financially excluded GUernsey residents access basic financial services.<\/p>\n

We have lots of things to get involved with this year. I am particualerly looking forward to attending the International conference in Dublin with six other membrs. I am hoping we will come back brimming with enthusiam and new ideas.<\/p>\n

I am planning my friendship weekend for 8th – 10th September. I wanted to hold it when hopefully the weather will be nice. It will be\u00a0 a very informal weekend, and I really hope that you will be able to particiapate in some of the activities planned.<\/p>\n

Please remember that this is your club, I want you to feel engaged, vlaued and have fun. Do let me know of your plans as I would love to attend as many as possible and help you wherever needed.<\/p>\n

Thank you<\/p>\n

Cathy<\/p>\n
