Sharon Richardson, a member of SI Southend & District became President of London Anglia Region at the beginning of November 2022 for a period of 2 years.  Previously she was the Programme Action Chair for our Region.  Her strapline for her term is: CARING FOR OURSELVES, BENEFITS OTHERS We are a diverse, spread out Region and each Club has its own culture, local issues and way of delivering its projects.  At the same time, Sharon commented that many things are the same.  If we look after ourselves then our own Clubs, our Region, SIGBI and SI all benefit and so do the organisations and people we support.  During COVID the opportunity to share Club Speaker meetings by Zoom has been a real bonus and we should look to ensure that this spirit of co-operation continues.   It was great to now be meeting in person again.
