We are a busy club, working on our projects to educate, empower and enable women and girls, both here and across the world. Currently we are examining local plans to challenge and tackle violence against women and girls and hold authorities to account. But we also work on smaller (but no less important) projects &#8211; collecting bras and new knickers for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smallsforall.org\/\">Smalls for All<\/a>, who pass them on to women and girls in need, writing letters to cancer sufferers with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.frommetoyouletters.co.uk\/\">From Me To You<\/a>, or supporting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yoursanctuary.org.uk\/\">Your Sanctuary<\/a>, Surrey&#8217;s local women&#8217;s refuge, with necessities and gifts.<\/p>\n<p>These are just a few of our current projects. But we want to do more!\u00a0 That&#8217;s where you come in&#8230;..<\/p>\n<p>What do you get out of it?\u00a0 A sense of helping others, working on projects which directly help women and girls both locally and throughout the world, talks which educate you, regional meetings and our annual Conference, where over 1,000 women gather to debate and learn.\u00a0 Soroptimist International gets the benefit of your skills and enthusiasm.\u00a0 And women and girls across the world get the support and recognition they deserve.<\/p>\n<p>If you would like to find out more about Soroptimism in general and SI Surrey Hills in particular, we would be delighted to see you at one of our meetings.\u00a0 Please contact us through this website and our Membership Co-ordinator will be in touch.<\/p>\n<p>We
