Here is my update for August:<\/p>\n<h3>Kiplin Hall Visit<\/h3>\n<p>A group of members and their other halves went on a guided tour of the local historic house <a href=\"https:\/\/kiplinhall.co.uk\/\">Kiplin Hall.<\/a>\u00a0 We had an excellent tour guide, who took us through the history of the house whilst displaying its architecture and contents.\u00a0 This impressive Jacobean mansion was built by successful statesman George Calvert, 1st Baron Baltimore, from 1619.\u00a0 He was also the founder of the American colony in Maryland, and there are ties between the house and it&#8217;s American connections to this day. The last family owner, Bridget Talbot, bequeathed it to the Trust she set up in 1971, and opened it to the public.\u00a0 Bridget Talbot was a notable woman in her own right and would have made a great Soroptimist.\u00a0 She was honoured by the Italian Government for her service as a nurse during World War I as well as being a talented artist in the Arts &amp; Crafts movement.\u00a0 Examples of her exquisite marquetry work can be seen in the Hall.\u00a0 After the enjoyable tour we had a pleasant lunch together in the tea-room, but the rain sadly prevented us from spending the afternoon exploring the extensive grounds and lake.\u00a0 Maybe next time! One of our members is a regular volunteer at the Hall.\u00a0 Anyone who is interested in joining her would be heartily welcomed.<\/p>\n<h3>Donations<\/h3>\n<p>Member Sue Eastham&#8217;s husband Barry presented Richinda from <a href=\"https:\/\/evawomensaid.org.uk\/home\/contact-us\/\">EVA Women&#8217;s Aid<\/a> a load of supplies for their flats which he has donated from his garage business. We &#8211; and Richinda &#8211; are very grateful for his generosity. <a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/richmond-and-dales\/files\/2023\/08\/Presentation-to-EVA-2.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft  wp-image-5114\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/richmond-and-dales\/files\/2023\/08\/Presentation-to-EVA-2-225x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"156\" height=\"208\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/richmond-and-dales\/files\/2023\/08\/Presentation-to-EVA-2-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/richmond-and-dales\/files\/2023\/08\/Presentation-to-EVA-2.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 156px) 100vw, 156px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/richmond-and-dales\/files\/2023\/08\/Presentation-to-EVA.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-5115\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/richmond-and-dales\/files\/2023\/08\/Presentation-to-EVA-300x123.jpg\" alt=\"Presentation to EVA\" width=\"300\" height=\"123\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/richmond-and-dales\/files\/2023\/08\/Presentation-to-EVA-300x123.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/richmond-and-dales\/files\/2023\/08\/Presentation-to-EVA.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Other members have also been busy this month.\u00a0 Jenny Cathcart has donated an Android Table to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.colburncommunitysupport.org.uk\/\">Colburn Community Support<\/a>, and Faye Doorbar has donated a sewing to<a href=\"https:\/\/www.colburnhub.org\/\"> Colburn Community Foodshare<\/a>, and an embroidery machine to Just the Job for use on their craft products.\u00a0 \u00a0We have also been able to make a further microloan through <a href=\"https:\/\/lendwithcare.org\/\">LendWithCare<\/a>.
