Thrilled and delighted

Those two words more or less sum up the response at the Executive meeting yesterday when Marjorie Vaughan agreed to be co-opted and join the team!! Marjorie has been our ACWW Representative for several years, visiting WIs to explain how we can contribute to our international sister organisation and the inspiration behind the very successful project, now completed, in India. Marjorie had been invited to the Executive meeting to report on this successful outcome and to ask approval for a new project in Romania, which the members of the Executive were pleased to support and voted unanimously in favour.

Marjorie is a member of Gretton WI and has also been working as the Federation Archivist for some time, lately with the assistance of Pat Stephens.

We are delighted to have her join the Executive and look forward to having her input on the team. Her wide experience and generous nature - not to mention her delightful sense of humour - will be greatly appreciated as we take the Federation forward into our 87th year.
