July 13th meeting:
This is the last meeting before the summer break. At the meeting there will be a quiz, a beetle drive, and cake to enjoy at our summer party. Please also pick up a copy of the new programme of meetings for this September through to July 2027.
Events
The trip to Duffryn Gardens to view the costumes from the recent television production, 'The Other Bennett Sister', will take place on August 3rd. Thank you to those members who have offered the possibility of a lift to those who need one. Sandra and Sheila will organise who is travelling with whom. There is no charge for the exhibition itself, but there is an entrance fee to Duffryn Gardens. It is a National Trust property for those who are members. It has been suggested that we arrive around 1 pm.
Our charity:
We will be doing the fundraiser 'Fill a Smartie Tube' again this year as it is such a successful and simple way to raise funds for our charity, Parkinsons UK Cymru. Please take a Smartie tube at the meeting, eat the sweets, and bring the tube back to the September meeting filled with cash.
