After all our Zoom Meetings this year due to the Coronavirus pandemic, we really appreciated being all together face to face. How lucky we were that the sun shone so brightly for us all afternoon! We took our own chairs and either ordered an afternoon tea through Dain Pinder or brought our own to eat. Past President Ilean Lumsdon and President Lynn Bowman generously treated us all to a glass of fizz or elderflower cordial, followed by a cup of tea, served to us by Dain and her helpers

Rosemary also had lots of scarves, gift bags and books for sale and Elaine brought her beautifully crafted greetings cards that she sells to boost the Charity Account funds.

Lots of members, including Lorna Pye, Ann Pradhan, Margaret Wilson, Veronica Malkowski and Jennifer Brackenbury had knitted and crocheted a large number of lovely, colourful blankets and baby bears to be sent abroad for international charities.

Veronica and Jenny show us these amazing baby bears & blankets, which they have knitted and crocheted for International Charities.

Rosemary presented Past District Chairman Anne Lyons with a lovely bouquet. The District Rally organised by Anne for her year sadly never came to be and this was one of the arrangements planned by Rosemary for the occasion.

For all their hard work, Elaine & Ilean are delighted to receive from Past District Chairman, Yvonne Neville, a cushion each, beautifully embroidered by a former Inner Wheel member, Julia Mudford.

What a most enjoyable and memorable afternoon we had, full of fun, laughter and friendship
