The WI meeting at Coddingtonvillage hall

MAY’S meeting combined with the annual meeting.

The group is collecting items to send to the Ukraine, with a member acting as a conduit to get items to their destination.

It was decided to hold a monthly coffee morning so members can chat. The first, at The Inn On The Green, was very successful.

The meeting ended with a toast to the Queen and the National Anthem.
