During the month of May, which was membership month, Catherine and her membership team also made a collection in the Gwyn Hall on their raising awareness day.<\/p>\n<p><u>Meru Garden Project Saint David\u2019s Church Flower festival Neath<\/u><\/p>\n<p>To mark the 150<sup>th<\/sup> Anniversary of St David\u2019s Church Neath at the end of September, instead of a flower display for the festival we decided on the Meru Women\u2019s Garden Project as our display. Several members were involved in building a garden in the church which was admired by many people and organisations who came to the festival and some people gave donations towards the project. There was a lot of interest and it was a huge success. It also raised awareness of Soroptimism. The club will be visiting the Sennedd in May to raise awareness of Soroptimism and the Meru Garden Project.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Smalls for All<\/u><\/p>\n<p>On 25<sup>th<\/sup> November a donation of 36 packets of ladies briefs, 8 loose briefs and 150 Bras were sent to Smalls for all. These will be sent to women in Africa who need them. A small donation of bras were also donated to Singleton Hospital.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">\n<p><u>Clothes for the homeless<\/u><\/p>\n<p>International night saw us make a collection of old clothes. We collected 24 bags which were passed on to the Paxton Street Hostel where the clothes were very much appreciated.<\/p>\n<p><u>Hats<\/u><\/p>\n<p>In January, Club members got involved with \u2018The Big Knit\u2019 where 180 hats were made and sent to Age Cymru. These hats will be placed on Smoothie bottles and for each bottle sold, 25p will be donated to Age Cymru.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"\/neath\/files\/2017\/03\/image1-e1495046223729.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-595\" src=\"\/neath\/files\/2017\/03\/image1-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"image1\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><u>Badges from SI Canterbury to support the Meru Garden Project<\/u><\/p>\n<p>Several members of the club purchased badges from SI Canterbury to support the Meru Garden Project.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Panshees<\/u><\/p>\n<p>A curry night was held in Panshees in January. 22 members, family and friends attended and a total of \u00a3168 was raised.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Mary\u2019s meals<\/u><\/p>\n<p>An audit has been carried out of items the club already has for Mary\u2019s Meals.
