Could You Be Salisbury’s Next Woman Changemaker?<\/strong><\/p>\n

We are inviting women of all ages to our Coffee, Cake and Conversation afternoon on Saturday 19 September, from 2.00pm to 4.00pm, at the Quaker Meeting House, Wilton Road, Salisbury.<\/p>\n

The free event is designed for women who are curious about getting involved in their
\ncommunity, meeting like-minded people and using their skills, experience and
\nenthusiasm to help improve the lives of women and girls locally and across the
\nworld.\u00a0From tackling domestic abuse and supporting vulnerable women in Salisbury to campaigning for gender equality and human rights internationally, Soroptimists work together to turn ideas into action.<\/p>\n

The club hopes to attract more women who are balancing careers, families and busy lives by showing that volunteering doesn’t have to mean making a huge commitment. Instead of expecting members to attend every meeting or event, Salisbury Soroptimists work on a project basis, allowing members to choose the causes that inspire them and contribute when they can.<\/p>\n

Kathryn Furnell, a working member of Salisbury Soroptimists, said: “Women today are incredibly busy, but many still want to give something back. One of the biggest myths about joining an organisation like ours is that it takes over your life. It really doesn’t. I fit my Soroptimist activities around work, evenings and weekends, and choose the projects that resonate most with me.”<\/p>\n

She added: “Whether your passion is ending violence against women and girls, supporting education, fundraising or organising community events, there’s a place for you. Every member brings different skills and ideas, and together we achieve far more than any of us could alone.”<\/p>\n

Guests will hear about the club’s work in Salisbury, including projects supporting women and girls, community partnerships and international campaigns, while enjoying coffee, cake and informal conversation with current members.<\/p>\n

There is no pressure to join on the day – just an opportunity to find out what Soroptimists do, ask questions and discover whether becoming part of a global organisation of women making a difference is right for you.<\/p>\n

If you’ve ever wanted to make a positive impact in your community, this could be the perfect place to start.<\/p>\n
