It was clear that, whenever a volunteer has been needed in her club or region, Sue has been willing to have a go. Building on these experiences she took on roles within SIGBI &#8211; and thus on to President.<\/p>\n<p>The challenge for Sue&#8217;s listeners &#8211; and all Soroptimists &#8211; is to take an active (and proactive) role in club life.<\/p>\n<p>If Soroptimists are to &#8216;transform the lives of women and girls&#8217;, members must all be willing to put forward ideas, shape projects, and work co-operatively.<\/p>\n<p>Region President Sue, in thanking our Federation President, reminded members of the networking opportunities afforded by regional events and meetings.<\/p>\n<p>Soroptimist International is a service organisation in which fun and friendship grow out of active participation. The Region really is the &#8216;place to be&#8217; when it comes to exchanging ideas and broadening horizons.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/south-lancashire\/files\/2019\/01\/chain-gang-lunch-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-4635 size-medium\" src=\"\/south-lancashire\/files\/2019\/01\/chain-gang-lunch-1-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/south-lancashire\/files\/2019\/01\/chain-gang-lunch-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/south-lancashire\/files\/2019\/01\/chain-gang-lunch-1.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Soroptimists from South Lancashire&#8217;s clubs joined Regional President Sue Underwood for the annual &#8216;chain gang&#8217;&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":311,"featured_media":4650,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4629","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-archive-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Chain Gang Challenge | News | Blog | Events | SI South Lancashire<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"SI South Lancashire : Blog &amp; News : Chain Gang Challenge : Keep up to date with the latest news, articles and events from the Soroptimists of SI South Lancashire .
