Presidents’ Chain Gangs Forge Links

Presidents, and presidents-elect, of Soroptimist clubs throughout South Lancashire Region met recently for their annual dinner.

Hosted by Regional President Margaret Baker and her executive committee, this is an opportunity for the outgoing and incoming ‘chain gangs’ to get together and swap experiences.

Incoming presidents can meet their opposite numbers in the Region – colleagues with whom they may be able to develop projects, share ideas and visit over the next year.

Outgoing presidents, meanwhile, are able to talk about the highs and lows of their year – what taking on the office of president has meant to them – and maybe what plans they have for the future.

Pat Williams, Regional Membership Officer, said, “This was, as ever, a very enjoyable occasion. All the presidents really appreciate the chance to meet up. For some, the ‘chain gang’ links will become long-lasting friendships.”
