DATE FOR YOUR DIARY -  SAVINGS IF YOU BOOK EARLY 

We are so excited to announce that this December we are hosting a Christmas Party and YOU are invited!! The Christmas Party is for ladies from all of our clubs and their (female) guests (that’s Members and non-members alike). 

 A YOGA  taster session to be held on TUESDAY 26th September - we usually meet on a Monday but this will be on the TUESDAY 
Come along and enjoy a taster session with Colette, she has been studying Pranayama - this is one of the eight limbs of yoga "Prana " means life energy, breath, and 'Yama " means control. Basically it is controlling the breath though a number of different breathing practices. I would call Yoga a mixture Hatha and Vinyasa, both of these practices link Pranayama to them.
We have this great opportunity for Colette to come to show us how she works her magic for our minds and bodies.
A mat and a blanket will be needed for this event.

Ashley Planten Mills will be here to tell us about Adventure Aid Charity and the projects they are working with.
A saying I always remember is "Give a man a fish and you will feed him for a day, teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime" Sewing Machines are for many life times.
To give you an Idea, below are a few of the posts from the Face Book page - 
June 2023 
With huge thanks to all involved and to those who made a donation as we have started our first tailoring course in Sattenapalli, India for 15 local women and young girls living in poverty who I had the privilege to meet in February.
This is one of three courses we have finally been able to fund which will improve the lives of 45 women and their families.
We hope we can keep the project running adding more locations next year.
The team head out in November to meet the women and present them all with their sewing machines and certificates.

August 2023 
And in #hanumanjunction #india, our third tailoring class has begun with another 15 local ladies being trained in a new skill to change the lives of them and their families.
Thanks to all those who have donated, and we look forward to meeting all three groups in November.
If you want to come with the team on 11 to 19th November, places are still available.
