Review November – Wreaths

Christmas Wreath making

This fun session was free for members and £28 for visitors (women aged 18+). The price included everything needed to make and take home a beautiful, traditional Christmas wreath. Spaces were limited and needed to be booked in advance.

Everything was included but we encouraged people to bring along fir cones, rosemary sprigs, bay leaves, holly, dried hydrangeas etc that they may have had in their garden, to share or add to their own wreaths. Some ribbons were provided and some people brought along ones they preferred.

Members:  All members were welcome to attend but we needed to confirm numbers for material ordering.

Visitors: (women aged 18+) were welcome but needed to pay in advance to secure their place.

Review October -AGM and Cyber Security

AGM & Cyber Security

Our October meeting included our Annual General Meeting (AGM), where members were updated on the club’s performance and finances through the Annual Report and Financial Statement.

Once the formal business of the AGM concluded, we were pleased to welcome guest speaker Megan Haldane from Avon & Somerset Police.

Megan led an informative session focused on staying safe online. We explored some of the common online scams currently circulating. We discussed helpful advice to protect ourselves when using the internet and technology. Additionally, we explored the phishing red flags to look out for. Finally, we then covered some basic cyber security advice. This aimed to help build confidence when using the internet at home and highlighted some of the great resources available for help.
