West Forest Townswomen’s Guild are on their annual summer break from their monthly meetings and will return to Emmbrook Village Hall on Thursday, September 15, to resume our programme.
Prior to our break we had a very enjoyable visit to Loseley Park for a guided tour of the house and a served lunch followed by leisurely time spent in the beautiful gardens.
At the beginning of June members celebrated the Queen’s Jubilee with a cream tea at which we toasted the Queen on reaching her 70 years on the throne.
We welcomed Philip Mirfin to our meeting to give an update on WADE, the amazing resource we are fortunate to have in the town which caters for the needs of the elderly to meet up and enjoy a vast array of activities.
Although most of us are aware of this local charity and the shop in town which supports it, we may not be aware of what it has to offer.
Our last meeting in July was a social event with refreshments and a quiz and an opportunity to introduce and welcome new members. A group later attended the excellent production of Daisy Pulls It Off at Wokingham Theatre.
In August 12, members assembled for a leisurely coffee morning in a member’s garden and later in the month 20 members enjoyed an afternoon tea at Riseley Tea Rooms.
All our small group activities will resume in September and our speaker at our meeting will be Jeffrey Pick who will be advising us on how to remain safe, vital information in this day and age.
