Our planned July Coffee morning is moving to February 2021, and our March event with Dame Tanni Grey-Thompson is now rescheduled to March or April 2021.\u00a0 We are also preparing ideas for our Sharing our Skills project with Richmond School, which will start in January.<\/p>\n<p>Next year we aim to provide trees from the Woodland Trust for planting by\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/just-the-job.org.uk\/\"> Just the Job<\/a>, one of this year&#8217;s President&#8217;s charities.\u00a0 Tree planting links both the <a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/who-we-are\/centenary\/\">Centenary of Soroptimist International Great Britain &amp; Ireland<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/richmond.org\/950\/index.php\">Richmond\u00a0 950<\/a> &#8211; a celebration of 950 years since the building of the Castle and founding of the town.\u00a0 A new woodland is being planted to commemorate this.<\/p>\n<p>We agreed to donate \u00a3100 to <a href=\"http:\/\/familyhelp.org.uk\/\">Family Help<\/a> &#8211; the women&#8217;s refuge in Darlington, which is struggling during the current crisis.\u00a0 It faces both an increase in demand for help to sufferers of domestic abuse and a hug reduction in income due to lockdown limited their fundraising.<\/p>\n<p>Soroptimist Richmond &amp; Dales member, and expert beekeeper, Sandy Baxter has been delighted that her bees have defied \u2018lockdown\u2019 and continued to produce their wonderful honey! For every jar sold Sandy is very kindly donating \u00a31 to Soroptimist charities in Zimbabwe, and she has also produced dozens of face masks for people to purchase.<\/p>\n<p>Soroptimist Richmond &amp; Dales have now added to the \u00a3250 donated by the \u2018Sharing our Skills\u2019 students from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.richmondschool.net\/\">Richmond School<\/a>, to the money raised from the honey donations, and generosity of club members. This will now be sent by Western Union as US Dollars to <a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/harare\/\">Soroptimist Harare<\/a>, in Zimbabwe, who are having a dreadful time &#8211; as reported last month. The dollars will then be used to help the various charities in and around Harare. The most urgent is the contribution to work on a borehole at Chikupo School &#8211; to enable the children to have clean water.<\/p>\n<p>President Faye and Jane send their thanks to the wonderful members of Richmond &amp; Dales, especially in these difficult times.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4596\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4596\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/richmond-and-dales\/files\/2020\/06\/Sandy-President-Faye-with-honey-and-facemasks.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4596\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/richmond-and-dales\/files\/2020\/06\/Sandy-President-Faye-with-honey-and-facemasks-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Sandy &amp; President Faye with honey and facemasks\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/richmond-and-dales\/files\/2020\/06\/Sandy-President-Faye-with-honey-and-facemasks-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/richmond-and-dales\/files\/2020\/06\/Sandy-President-Faye-with-honey-and-facemasks.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4596\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sandy &amp; President Faye with honey and facemasks<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4594\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4594\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/richmond-and-dales\/files\/2020\/06\/Honey-and-Facemasks-from-Sandy-rotated.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4594\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/richmond-and-dales\/files\/2020\/06\/Honey-and-Facemasks-from-Sandy-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Sandy's Honey &amp; Facemasks\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/richmond-and-dales\/files\/2020\/06\/Honey-and-Facemasks-from-Sandy-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/richmond-and-dales\/files\/2020\/06\/Honey-and-Facemasks-from-Sandy-rotated.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4594\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sandy&#8217;s Honey &amp; Facemasks<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Members got together online using Zoom for our June Meeting.\u00a0 Much of the discussion was&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":128,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[21,26,24,25,23,22,17],"class_list":["post-4592","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-club-news","tag-june-meeting","tag-just-the-job","tag-richmond-950","tag-richmond-school","tag-sigbi-centenary","tag-tree-planting","tag-zoom"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>June Meeting via Zoom | News | Blog | Events | SI Richmond and Dales<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"SI Richmond and Dales : Blog &amp; News : June Meeting via Zoom : Keep up to date with the latest news, articles and events from the Soroptimists of SI Richmond and Dales .
