Happy New Year Everyone. We hope you have all enjoyed your Christmas festivities.

We will be holding a ‘Wellness Evening’ on Wednesday 25th January with several speakers from local businesses helping to ensure we look after ourselves and take some quality ‘me’ time.

As required by the WI we will also be voting on the resolutions. These can be found in the Nov/Dec edition of WI Life together with a voting slip. If you do still have the magazine please familiarise yourselves with the resolutions and bring along your completed voting slip. There will also be voting slips available on the evening.

The ACM is 18th March and will be held at Leicester Grammar School. If you would like to attend please advise one of the committee members on Wednesday evening.

And finally as part of the ‘recycle and reuse’ ethos of the WI – if you have any unwanted christmas gifts please bring them along for the WI raffle. Many thanks.

We look forward to seeing you all on Wednesday Evening.
