November Meeting, Alma Church Hall Weds 29th November at 7.30

 Louise Bastow from Best of the Bunch will be showing us how to make a table floral decoration at our next meeting on Weds November 29th. She has kindly agreed to donate the decoration as a raffle prize to help with our fundraising.  If you would like to have a go at home she will have some of the necessary supplies for sale to help you.

 Clifton WI Christmas Party December 20th 7.30 at Channings Hotel, Pembroke Road 

 This is instead of a monthly meeting in December, we had a great time last year so decided to give it another try. Tickets (£15.00) are only available in advance for our annual party and you are welcome to bring female friends to see what we get up to when we are being festive!  

 Clifton WI at Royal York Crescent Christmas Fair Saturday December 2nd

 We are repeating our stall selling home made baked goods and preserves plus other festive goodies at this event.  We would welcome contributions for any of you either at the fair on Sat 2nd or at the meeting on Weds 29th November.  Come along and say hello it would be good to see you.
