Soroptimists in South Lancashire ‘let their hair down’ in aid of charity. Together they presented – for one night only – ‘The S Factor Concert’. Instigator of the concert and the evening’s mistress of ceremonies Margaret Baker, Regional President, took great delight in introducing the following Clubs and their ‘acts’:
- SI Bury: Lullaby of Broadway
- SI Bolton: Sisters
- SI Warrington / SI Ashton under Lyne: Little Red
- SI Widnes: Memories
- SI Southport: The Ageing Fairies and To keep my love alive
- SI Wigan: Poetry Please

- SI Crosby: Rising to the Challenge
- SI Manchester: A New Breed of Soroptimists
- SI Bootle: Bootle del Canto
SI Crosby’s members Rising to the Challenge - SI Liverpool: Boogie Woogie Girls
- SI Leigh and District: British Belles
The Region donated the proceeds from the concert – over £1,400 – to the new International President’s ‘December 10th Appeal’ for 2015-17, ‘Educate to Lead: Nepal’.
