Our November craft meeting was described as chilled out fun by our members.
The session
was kicked off by Emma announcing the new membership rates for January which is a snip at £37.50 for the whole year! This
includes all meetings and priority booking on our exciting workshops as well as
10 copies of the amazing ‘WI life’ magazine.
Emma took us
through the WYN highlights and the 2016 Resolutions which are:
Ban the microbead
British
fruit: reviving our heritage
Free
sanitary protection for homeless women
Prevention
of sudden cardiac death in young adults in the UK
First aid to
save lives
Mind or body
– equal funding for care
Avoid food
waste, address food poverty
Appropriate
care in hospitals for people with dementia
Please refer
to the Buns & Roses website or the WI website for more information.
We also
found out the theme for the NFWI 2016 Craft Competition which is ‘something
old, something new. The theme is centred around upcycling which sounds like something which is dear to
the roses hearts!
Our new 2016 diary is available on the
website now, this year’s membership fees will be due in January and the bank
details have been provided in the round up so please don’t forget to transfer
your membership
fees.
There was
lots of excellent crafting going on at the meeting and I believe that everyone
went away having made at least one decoration for their tree!
