Vice - president Pat Moran welcomed everyone to the meeting's 87th birthday this month. March is Members Meeting and donations of jewellery, bring and buy and raffle would be appreciated.Once again George Mills is asking for washing machine powder and toilet rolls for the orphanage in Chernigov. Our delegate will take these items to the County Annual Meeting at Southend-on-Sea following our meeting the evening before March 5.
Once again St Helena Hospice have asked our help by donating fresh not frozen baked cakes to be brought on Wednesday 2 April.
Following the sending of 222 items boxed up by 2 of our members to the soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan before Christmas a thank you letter was received written by a 23 year old soldier. On behalf of his colleagues he wanted to express how much they all appreciated our kind thoughts especially as they are separated from their families.
The speaker Mrs Gianetta Nosworthy gave a very enlightening talk with slides on the history and present gardens of the Marks Hall Estate near Coggeshall.
