Inner Wheel District 6
Association of Inner Wheel Clubs
in Great Britain and Ireland
The IW national Conference in Cardiff was well attended by members from District 6 who had a very enjoyable time.
There were inspiring speakers such as Ed Pratt who circled the world on a Unicycle to raise money for the School in a Bag charity, charity presentations including one from Hope and Home given by a woman who had been an abandoned orphan herself and business sessions including our Annual General Meeting. All of this was sprinkled with entertainment and music, and we finished off the last night dancing to the Amazing Blues Brothers. Join us next year in Belfast if you can!
Our District 6 Meeting on 21st March was well attended and a great mix of business and sharing news and events across all the District Clubs. The next Meeting will be our AGM on June 13th.
The recent District 6 meeting was a very lively event with Christmas themed stalls to enjoy as well as covering District 6 business.
Minutes of the meeting will go out to Club Secretaries for disribution.
The Distict 6 Rally was a very well attended event, despite it being stormy weather outside. Everyone enjoyed the talks by the Association President and the speaker from the Chairman's charity, Hearing Dogs for the Deaf, and her dog Primrose was a real star!
New Presidents recently enjoyed a tasty Afternoon Tea with D6 Chairman Jill, creating an opportunity to share experiences and issues.
District 6 Officers attended the National Assembly in Leicester to discuss their roles with others and learn about the latest IW issues. This information was then shared with Club Officers over tea and cake at The Lakes, Barston, recently.
Our IIW 3-year Social Project in this country is Period Poverty - Dignity for Women and Girls. We are working closely with charities, schools, women's refuges, and supermarkets to highight the issues.
Did you know...... it only takes 10 to 12 women to form a Club - and then YOU could help change the World! Go to the Membership Page for more information.
