Happy belated Easter to you all, we hope you've all had the chance to enjoy the Spring sunshine. For our meeting in March, we had an interesting and entertaining talk from Andy Lewis about the history of Bedminster Down, and how it has evolved over the years.
For our April meeting we are embracing spring by planting miniature Ranunculus bulbs for some summer colour for you to take home. Bulbs, pots, and compost will be provided, however if you do have a small plant pot, you'd like to use, please bring it along. We’ll also be putting some fizz into our lives by making bath bombs. The bath bomb ingredients will be provided, but you will need to bring something to make them in, small flexible plastic or silicon items such as silicon ice trays, muffin cases or even old yogurt pots will work. We'll have some essential oils to use to add scent, but if you have any favourite scented oils or any dried rose petals or lavender do bring it along to use. If you don't have a suitable mould, a glass jar would work for making fizzy bath powder instead.
April is now the month when subs are renewed. The 2022 subscription is £44, which is split between the WI, federation and the NFWI to help with running individual groups and the organisation. Payment can be made via cheque, cash, or bank transfer. We also now have a card reader, this can't be used for subs but can be used for paying for guest fees, refreshments, raffle tickets and donations.
Lastly, we'll be asking our members to vote on this year's resolution so that our votes can be carried forward to this year’s WI national AGM in June. The resolution is Women and Girls with ASD & ADHD - under-identified, under-diagnosed, misdiagnosed, under-supported and further information can be found on the WI website.
We look forward to seeing you on Wednesday 27th.
