The Inner Wheel Club of Wolverton
A Photo record of
the Current
Year
-
With some caution, and observing the needs for social distancing, the Wolverton members
were able to start gathering again for meetings and events from July 2021. Some of these
meetings needed to be weather dependent by being held outdoors, but slowly, things started to
get back to something like normal.
At the end of each Inner Wheel year, the members take the opportunity to take the Past year’s President
out for tea somewhere and this year it gave a chance to do the official handover from Angela to incoming
President Judith. The trip for 2021 was to Delapre Abbey at Northampton.
Early Summer and the chance to raise a few pounds from spare
bedding plants. Judith and Pat had stalls in their front gardens
which were very successful in aid of Willen Hospice.
The Book Club took to garden meetings
As things became more relaxed, we were able to run a
Charity Lunch
For the July Meeting of the Club, a guided
walk was arranged followed by a talk.
A serious collection of crafted
blankets and other items for the
Inner Wheel District International
appeal
The August Club meeting
with District Chairman
Brenda Lowe.
Still not a full house of
members but a good
turnout.
You will begin to think that all we
are concerned about is ‘food’, but
we did run a very good social day in
September, centred around a
progressive lunch when members
enjoyed a course in different
houses with different groups of 6
guests. A lot of organisation but a
super day. We have run several of
these over the years and they
always prove popular.
In October we had a visit from a relative of Alice Hawkins, who
told us the story of Alice and her part of the suffragette
campaign which is celebrated in her home city of Leicester.
A very interesting evening
Also in October we ran a ‘Tastes of the World’ social evening
as a charity fund raiser - a gtreat event.
Our November Speaker was from MK Mind, our charity for the year.
Also on a cold November day we raised funds for our charities with a stall at the Stony Stratford Christmas
Lights switch On ceremony.
The intended photos were not too clear due to frozen fingers on the camera, so no image is included here.
Another couple of food based events were the Christmas
meal at a local village Pub in December - a good turnout but
you can only see a few of those involved in our photo.
November also featured a craft day run by our
International Group to raise funds for a school we
support in Cambodia.
At least this was in the warm and a great success
as well
Also in January, the Club meeting was a Soup and
Pudding Lunch at the President’s home. Funds
raised and quite a lot of talk.
‘My Plate’s empty ! ‘
