3rd April 2019


Good morning everyone

What gorgeous weather we are having!!

Our meeting this month welcomes our Speaker from The British Red Cross, covering their work Internationally and in the UK, exploring how the work started, its range and diversity. 


Next month is our Annual Meeting when we look back at the past year to elect our President and Committee for the following year.  We have members stepping down which means we have a shortfall in the numbers needed for the committee.

We hope some of you may consider putting yourself forward. Nominees will be accepted up to the start of the meeting,
Being on the committee is an important role and not a difficult task. The Committee are a team helping each other to run your WI.

                     YOUR WI NEEDS YOU!!!

The Resolutions for 2019 were six.  The NFWI Board of Trustees have decided to put the top two voted to the NFWI Annual Meeting in Bournemouth on June 5th. Decline in local buses, 35,194 and Don't fear the Smear, 20,825 votes respectively.
Therefore we will be voting in May on these Resolutions. The one with the most votes will be put forward at the NFWI Annual Meeting by our LINK delegate 2019, First Ladies (Barking and Dagenham) WI.
A very important meeting!!

Looking forwards to seeing you this Wednesday, 3rd April 2019. There will be the usual tea, coffee and cake. We welcome donations of cakes and biscuits.
Don't forget to bring your coffee and tea cups.


Bye for now
