More Charity Fund Raising

Dave Winn’s daughter Leanne 14yrs and her friend Jessica 13yrs did a sponsored walk last month for MS. Don’t know if you saw it in the T&A.. they raised over £300 for the society.

They walked from Wibsey roundabout to Halifax via Queensbury…
 

Welfare Officers Phone Problem

Our welfare officer has asked me to publish a statement regarding calls not being returned.

This was not her fault but a fault with the message centre not notifying her there were messages waiting.
 

A.G.M. and Annual Conference

What can I say about this years AGM and conference?

It was a better journey to and from the event because we went by car, last year we were cramped on a train like sardines.

The convention was very interesting with lectures covering all aspects of MS, and help and support issues.

I went to several lectures and asked a few questions. I got a lot more than I bargained for at one lecture, I felt like I was back in school having to learn from scratch. I didn’t realise how much information was available out there.

You just have to look.
 

Remember

Social evenings are held on the second Tuesday of every month at the East Bowling Unity Club from March through to November. Feel free to fetch friends and family along, we always have a good night.

I think we have covered everything this time.
