June Newsletter Next Meeting: Wednesday 26 th June at 7.45pm This month, when you sign in, there will be a badge waiting for you with your name on it.    Please pick up and put on – help us all to remember who we are! Prof Mark Fielder from Kingston University, a former colleague of our membership secretary Sue Easmon, will give a talk on “Antibiotic resistance in man and animals. Have we reached break point?”    A very topical and interesting subject. Resolutions: Last month we voted on the local buses and fear the smear resolution.    At the NFWI Annual Meeting in Bournemouth both topics were debated. •                 96% of delegates voted to call on the government and local authorities to address the decline in local bus services.  •                 97% of delegates voted in favour of ‘don’t fear the smear’, calling on WI members to take action to raise awareness of the importance of cervical screening.  Both will be the organisation’s campaigning focus goin
