Branch News
Presentation Lunch
In January we had our Presentation Lunch at the Brookfield Hotel
Emsworth, where 52 members and guests enjoyed a delicious three
course meal and were entertained with music and dancing. We
were pleased to be able to make a substantial donation to the 2009
branch charity, the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance. See
the Successes page for details and more about what
happened at the event.
Charity for 2010
At the October 2009 members’ meeting, the branch members chose
the Hampshire Bobby Trust to be our 2010 charity. The Hampshire
Bobby Trust is a registered charity (Registered Charity No.
1077238) which provides practical home security fitting and advice
for elderly and vulnerable householders who have been burgled.
2010 Charity Co-ordinator
At the Presentation Lunch we thanked Ron Bennett for
co-ordinating charity activities for many years and for making
arrangements for some of our fund-raising in 2010. Now that Ron has
decided to take a well earned rest, Mr Pat Glenn has agreed to be
our charity co-ordinator in 2010.
