Soroptimist International Lewisham and South East London celebrated the Club’s 50th Anniversary with a lunch at the historic Clarendon Hotel in Blackheath. Bea Lawes (pictured front row left) welcomed everyone and after a delightful meal, Federation President Margaret Emsley proposed a toast to the Lewisham Club, reflecting on their history, their noted member, Hilary Page, (who sadly was unwell and could not attend) and their recent project work (the Club may be small but really punches above it’s weight with great projects to improve the lives of women and girls). Regional President Pam (pictured centre back row) responded on behalf of the club and congratulated them on their anniversary and on a great event.
