ROYAL YORK CHRISTMAS FAIR - THIS SUNDAY!

By -
Grateful thanks to all those who brought lovely home-made goodies to last night's meeting, and we'd just like to remind you that we still need lots of freshly-baked deliciousness for Sunday. So please, please, get baking on Saturday if you can - muffins, biscuits, fruit cakes, Victoria sandwich, brownies, whatever you love to make. Christmas cakes, puddings and edible decorations, of course - or how about a little box of gorgeous truffles from the recipe in the new post below? WI baking is always in huge demand, so we can sell as much as you can bring us!

We'll be setting up from 10am on Royal York Crescent (our stall is opposite no. 20 RYC) so please bring your contributions there between 10 and 12.

If you can't bring your goodies on Sunday please email Sally who can arrange for alternative delivery.
sally@meadows517.orangehome.co.uk 

All profits from the whole year's fundraising (after our operating expenses are paid) are given at the end of the year to a local charity that you, the members, vote for. Next time it could be your pet charity so please give generously!

We had a lovely time catching up and discussing the resolutions, which led to a lively debate, and took the opportunity to shop at our book and regifting stalls. A special thanks to those who helped the evening go smoothly, despite the change of venue. Unfortunately, it appears February is going to turn cold once again! We had a little reprieve from winter, but it was not to last. So, we will have to keep warm together and listen to another wonderful speaker. On 28 February, we will host Claire Hiscock, Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner for Avon & Somerset. She will discuss their priorities for tackling violence against women and girls in our area. We will be meeting in our usual location, the rear hall of Alma Church, at 7.30pm. Visitors are a...
