(SI Winchester) Membership Officer Gina Bird hosted a prospective member’s tea and cake session with two ladies this week. The weather held and we were able to talk at a social distance and still enjoy refreshments. Treasurer Julie Blackwell also joined the party.
Marianne and Debbie had recently made contact with the club with a view to join us, but with no meetings in person at present, this seemed the Gina suggested this would be a good way to meet up and discuss the club and our projects. We found we had a lot in common and with Marianne working in the care home sector and Debbie in the NHS, we found a great synergy with our goals and objectives.
We hope that Marianne and Debbie will join us in our next social zoom meeting where they can meet the rest of the members and we look forward to welcoming them to our club.
We also hope that we can get back to holding coffee and cake sessions in Winchester in the future to create awareness locally and talk to potential members.
