S.I. Cockermouth were hosting a fund raising coffee morning in aid of Brain Tumour Research. At the March Regional Meeting Cockermouth members came with hats on to highlight it this charity. So SI members from Newcastle, Tynemouth and Whitley Bay and Tynedale took the opportunity to parade their summer headwear \u2013 and very smart they looked too. Approximately \u00a3150 was raised.

We were also joined by a member from S.I. Bangkok, Christiane Kitchakakarn. When she visited S.I. Newcastle in 2016, she was very interested in helping with some clothing for the New Start Bags – and she had with her 4 bags of clothing donations, emblazoned with the Soroptimist International logo.
