We held our usual monthly meeting in May at the Holiday Inn, Scotch Corner.\u00a0 The meeting began with short talks by two members about their lives and careers – it is always interesting to find our more about our diverse group.\u00a0 \u00a0One was a working class girl who succeeded in pursing a career in languages as a University academic, the other talked about her expertise as a teacher of Dance and local pioneer of Nordic Walking.<\/p>\n

The Wider Scene<\/strong><\/p>\n

The focus of discussions this month was the wider Soroptimist community.\u00a0 Joint President Lin attended the Yorkshire Region President’s Lunch, and we will be receiving a visit from the Region President at our next meeting.\u00a0 This will be at the Richmondshire Museum, to help celebrate 50 years since it’s inception by members of Soroptimists Richmond & Dales.\u00a0 There was also discussion of ideas to submit for a Regional poster to be displayed at this year’s\u00a0 SI Gt Britain & Ireland Conference in Edinburgh, which will be attended by several or our members.<\/p>\n

Programme Update<\/strong><\/p>\n

Our new Programme Action Officer Wendy reported on the month. We have donated to another “Lend With Care<\/a>” business.\u00a0 This time it is a widow from Ecuador who sells second hand clothes to support her family.\u00a0 \u00a0The final total raised by our Sharing our Skills Students with their walk against domestic abuse has been confirmed as \u00a3431 – a real achievement.\u00a0 For those who missed our successful International Women’s Day Exhibition at the Town Hall,\u00a0 it was shown again at St Mary’s Church, Richmond over the Bank Holiday Weekend.\u00a0 Member Sandy also passed on another bag of knitted Poppies produced by Middleton Tyas Craft Group for the Royal British Legion<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Social Media<\/strong><\/p>\n

With help from our friends in Spouse Force<\/a>, member Lorna has set up a new Facebook page for our club, which all are urged to support and promote.\u00a0 The address is Richmond and Dales Soroptimists<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
