In Sept 2026 we were pleased to be invited to the Grand Opening of the refurbished Swindon Centre, hearing inspiring speakers such as Lady Lansdowne, DL Nicky Alberry, MP Heidi Alexander and CEO Christina, as well as heart rending life stories from two survivors.

The speakers left us in no doubt of the life changing work done by Nelson Trust staff, as Bobby put it, ‘there are heroes that don’t wear capes’, with Kristina saying 'they were a glimmer of hope in the darkness’.

As one of several partnerships we have, members registered for the Army Welfare Service networking event in Corsham. We were impressed by the huge range of charities and services that support the Army, from Domestic Abuse, Mental Health, Housing to Schooling, Resettlement, Energy Saving and many more. We were able to highlight the wide range of work we do as Soroptimists, especially on Domestic Abuse and gave out over 120 of our Relationship bookmarks, as well information on our new Fresh Thoughts booklet. We made several new connections and several will attend our Fresh Thoughts launch.
