January 2013 Newsletter



Welcome to our January 2013 newsletter.


Our aim is to be able to update you on anything you may have missed if you didn't attend our January 2013 meeting and also to inform you of any future events.

                                  

January meeting

  • A good turnout for this meeting 14 members plus 3 guests attended and there were 3 apologies.
  • Our guest for our January meeting was Carol Davies who gave us a talk on patchwork and how we could incorporate it into the making of our banner. Those who attended would probably agree Carol's work was quite impressive. Carol has kindly offered her services in helping us make a banner and we will be cutting and sewing to our hearts content on the 4th Wednesday of every month, between 7pm and 9pm in the hall where we hold our monthly meeting. The first meet will be on Wednesday 27th February.
  • We asked members who attended the meeting to vote on 2 resolutions put forward by the NFWI. The resolutions put forward are as follows:

A) Decline of our High Streets
B) Suicide in young people.

The one that had the most votes (although there was only 1 vote difference) was
B) Suicide in young people.

  • WI membership fees are due in January and the cost of membership for 2013 is £33.00 per annum. If you were unable to attend the January meeting you are more than welcome to pay at the February meeting.
                                           

Our next meeting is on Wednesday 13th February and there has been a change to the attached programme. Our guest for the evening is now a Lady who is the Communities First Area Co-ordinator for the Glyncoch area? Full details not available at this time.

Supper Club.... Our next 'Supper Club' is on the 21st February 2013 at La Trattoria, Pontypridd, if you wish to attend names will be taken at the next meeting.
       
                       


Please don’t forget our chosen charity(as I did last month)– the Local Food Bank and bring a non perishable food item if you want to donate. Doesn’t have to be anything expensive – small can of fruit, long life milk, packet soup, etc.
