An invitation to attend – as a Soroptimist – a meeting of the \u20181918 Club\u2019 in Liverpool was a surprise for Dorothy Zack-Williams (President, SI Liverpool).<\/p>\n

The club is possibly the oldest continuously existing women\u2019s club in the city. Today – as a century ago – it offers women the opportunity to meet socially and engage in contemporary issues. President Dorothy was able to tell members about the work of Soroptimist International, and was warmly welcomed.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Developed by Eleanor Rathbone and Elizabeth Macadam, the luncheon club idea was set up after the 1918 Armistice. It aimed to preserve many of the friendships made through the war-period and many of the alliances forged through the suffrage campaign.<\/p>\n

Revolutionary at the time, it enabled members to form new contacts among fellow professional working women and social welfare workers. The 1918 Club<\/a> still provides a common meeting ground for women from many professions and offers an ideal opportunity for the interchange of ideas.<\/p>\n
