I do hope this newsletter finds you well, as I write I am day 4 into Covid and crikey does my body hurt, so I want to begin with a very personal thank you, to every person involved, in any way no matter how small, in the rolling out of the Covid jab programme. I am well aware that both my husband & I would end up in hospital had it not been for the protection given by that injection. Thank you.

Thank you for those WI crafters who have already sent in their jubilee bunting. I had been asked to return a set once our celebrations are over and as some of these are beautiful works, I agreed. So if you would like me to return your bunting for your own WI archives then let me know via the Office and I shall return them.
