SI NOTTINGHAM
SI Nottingham Club meetings are held at 19.30 on the 1st and 3rd Monday of the month. Normally the 1st Monday is held on Zoom and the 3rd Monday is face to face at the Holiday Inn, Castle Marina. Our next two meetings are on 5th January 2026 (by zoom) and then on 19th January at the Holiday Inn, Castle Marina (in person) at 7.30pm. Please contact us for more information if you would like to attend and find out all about us
Our club meetings are very varied. Sometimes we will have a speaker to inform and inspire us, whilst other meetings focus on activities we are involved in, or activities such as putting together welcome packs for the refuges.
Whatever the focus of the meeting, there is always time for members to catch up with each other, find out what everyone’s been up to, and enjoy a coffee. Visitors and new members are always welcome, and everyone is happy to explain what’s going on.
If you would be interested in coming along you would be very welcome.

In May, our club entered its 90th year.

United Nations 16 Days of Action to Raise Awareness of Gender Based Violence
Our 2025 event at Nottingham City Library is fast approaching. Please come along and see our display.
in the meantime, here is what happened in 2023. Members gathered in the centre of Nottingham to hand out orange ribbons to members of the public together with postcards showing contact details of organisations which support victims of domestic violence. Over 400 ribbons were handed out , resulting in hundreds of conversations which spread the message that this was the UN’s Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. Over the following 16 days, more activities were planned
