June & July Events of Wenvoe W.I.
uneIn June we welcomed Ann Lush MBE from Penarth who gave us a very interesting talk about how cakes are used to celebrate occasions throughout the year, along with how they are made. She also told us about the filming of her garden for a future Gardeners’ World programme which had taken place that day.
On July 3rd Viv Truran entertained us again with tales of her travels, gave us some information on antiques that members had brought in and described how she has become an Instagram influencer. This was followed by a strawberries and cream supper.
The following day we visited Ty Hafan, our chosen charity for the year, for a very informative tour around the gardens and hospice, showing us the facilities available for the children and their families. We were also treated to cakes and drinks provided by the volunteer gardening team.
We are not meeting in August but are going out for a meal together.
A member of staff from Ty Hafan will be the speaker for our September 4th meeting and we will be having a raffle as our final fundraising event.
Visitors and prospective members are always welcome to our meetings, which are held in the Church Hall at 7pm on the first Thursday of the month. Please ring 07881853032 for further details
