A relatively new member, Alison Forster, who has accepted the Social and Event lead role, had the idea of organising a Sip and Swap day. Bring a \u201cmistake\u201d a purchase of ill fitting shoes, \u00a0an outfit worn once to a wedding, or no longer fits and rather than wasting this resource swap with another club member. Any remaining items at the end of the day could be returned to the donor or with agreement donated to one of our charities.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Alison\u2019s conservatory was transformed into an amazing Soroptimist boutique on Saturday 2nd of April and an incredibly enjoyable event\u00a0 resulted in not only raising \u00a3500 for charity funds but ensuring that many garments were recycled.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The afternoon included an Easter raffle, a Fashion Quiz, too many tempting cakes and goodies and of course in addition to tea and coffee a considerable amount of fizz was consumed. Some remaining items are likely to find their way to new owners via WomenMatta &#8211; one of the charities we support.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Thanks Alison for your tremendous effort and enthusiasm ensuring a successful and fun event.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: right\"><em>Rosemary Steven<\/em><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/manchester\/files\/2022\/04\/sip5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-5064 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/manchester\/files\/2022\/04\/sip5-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/manchester\/files\/2022\/04\/sip5-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/manchester\/files\/2022\/04\/sip5.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: right\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/manchester\/files\/2022\/04\/sip3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-5063 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/manchester\/files\/2022\/04\/sip3-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/manchester\/files\/2022\/04\/sip3-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/manchester\/files\/2022\/04\/sip3.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<\/em><\/div>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/manchester\/files\/2022\/04\/Sip2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5062 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/manchester\/files\/2022\/04\/Sip2-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/manchester\/files\/2022\/04\/Sip2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/manchester\/files\/2022\/04\/Sip2.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>S I Manchester took an unusual step towards saving the planet with an innovative Sip&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":272,"featured_media":5060,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5032","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-club-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Boutique for a day | News | Blog | Events | SI Manchester<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"SI Manchester : Blog &amp; News : Boutique for a day : Keep up to date with the latest news, articles and events from the Soroptimists of SI Manchester .
