Searching Desperately for a Treasurer
o
WOMEN’S INSTITUTE
Hopefully all members, their families and friends are safe and well. May is the time of the year when we would normally hold our Annual Meeting.
It is really important that members are aware that we are still searching desperately for a Treasurer to re-place Jayne so that we can move forward and save our WI. If you feel you could fill this position Madeleine would be DELIGHTED to hear from you (02920593212). Please remember that lots of help and support will always be available.
A big thank you is extended to all members who have re-joined us. A receipt will be forwarded at a later date.
May is also “Resolutions Month”. However due to the current situation a different plan is in place regarding the voting system. WIs have until 9th July to cast their vote so members still have a considerable amount of time to decide how they want to vote. All details regarding the Resolution, which is “A Call to Increase Awareness of the Subtle Signs of Ovarian Cancer” can be found on page 17 of the April 2021 edition of WI Life.
Another special article in the same magazine is the story of four members from Peterston WI working at a vaccination centre. It was very interesting to read about Nurse Sharon Chapman’s appearance in the media both here and in the United States.
Hopefully by now our sunflower seeds have had some warmth to help them on their way. We are all curious to see who can grow the tallest sunflower and we are looking forward to seeing photographs of “Sunflowers in Bloom”.
As soon as we are able to meet up again members will be notified straight away – we are all looking forward to that special time.
If you are celebrating a birthday in May please accept our warmest wishes for that special day.
Members are still staying in touch in various ways and hoping it won’t be too long before we can have a social gathering. In the meantime –stay well and stay safe – stay in touch.
