We had hoped for a balmy September day to sit outside for our informal coffee morning. Instead, we were indoors with the central heating switched on! 

As well as all the chatter and biscuits, we were able to sort squares to make into knee blankets for residents of local nursing homes.

President Fran's first action after receiving her Chain of Office was, on behalf of the members, to present Immediate Past President Rosemary with an orchid in recognition of her service.

We held our first face-to-face meeting since March 2020 on a beautiful sunny morning with coffee in the lovely garden of founder member Margaret

We have managed to keep busy during the past year and enjoyed meeting up in small groups for coffee and lunches as lockdowns came and went, taking opportunities to celebrate special birthdays and anniversaries 

Our members have sewn scrubs and bags for NHS staff and face masks for family, friends and the School in a Bag charity.  Knitting needles have worked tirelessly producing cot blankets, jackets and hats for babies and children at home and overseas, as well as knee blankets for residents of nursing homes.
