President |
Mags Fuller |
|
About me: |
I moved to South Milford in 1997 but flitted off here
and there, Australia for a couple of years, Solihull (not quite so
glam) for a couple more, but always ended up back in the village! 2
children later and I feel very much part of the great community here!
Been looking after WI membership this year and we've exceeded 50 but
always looking for more so come and join and save Caroline and I
pounding the streets next January!! |
|
Fav cake: |
Dawn's Millionaire's Shortbread |
|
Heroines: |
My friends Patty B and Kate - strong, generous, kind
and brave. |
|
|
 |
Secretary |
Caroline Dulson |
|
About me: |
I love all things arty and crafty and will do almost
anything for a good slab of cake and a cup of tea! Happiest when I'm
pottering in the garden, painting with my children or drinking gin and
tonic with friends. Joining the SMWI has at least covered one of
these! |
|
Fav cake: |
Any that I didn't have to make or wash up after. |
|
Heroines: |
Mary Poppins (for the amazing bag) |
|
|
 |
Treasurer |
Claire Thomas |
|
About me: |
As a newcomer to South Milford, mum of 2 and an
electrical engineer I joined the WI as a way to meet people and to get
a bit of female (grown up) company! So far so good... |
|
Fav cake: |
My Grandma’s praline filled with lots of Cadbury’s
Flake |
|
Heroines: |
Margot Fonteyn and Jacqueline Du Pre |
|
|
 |
Committee |
Suzanne Cawood |
|
About me: |
Having stepped down as President, I am looking forward
to being able to spend more time relaxing with our members during
meetings! Still looking after the hall bookings though so I'm sure my
children will continue to associate the WI with lots of phone calls!
Meanwhile, our webmaster, (my husband) is enjoying having someone else
to chase for website material. |
|
Fav cake: |
Coffee cake with orange icing. |
|
Heroines: |
Emily Bronte (for Wuthering Heights), Emily Pankhurst
(everyone should vote) and Philippa, Comtesse de Sevigny (an obscure
one that). |
|
|
 |
Committee |
Zoë Holdsworth |
|
About me: |
I'm originally a
dancer/dance teacher (many moons ago now though). I'm now a busy mum
who's always up for learning new skills and making new friends, and
the WI is the best place to do just that. |
|
Fav cake: |
There's only one, and that's CHOCOLATE! mmmmmmm! |
|
Heroines: |
Both my Grandma's who managed to do so much with so
little. |
|
|
 |
Committee |
Miriam Hurley |
|
About me: |
As a full time mum to two boys and general right hand
woman to my husbands business, I decided
to join the WI to get a little more female perspective in my life. Not
sure what I've let myself in for but it sounds like jolly good fun. |
|
Fav cake: |
Mmmmm cake |
|
Heroines: |
Princess Leia (I'm a huge sci-fi geek) |
|
|
 |
Committee |
Pauline Nesbitt |
|
About me: |
I really must learn to say no! Not sure that is going
to happen though after 30 years in the village and having worn several
'hats' along the way. I strongly believe that if you live in a village
you should get involved & what better way than with the WI? Jam and
Jerusalem? Yes, we can do that if you wish, but I prefer our shared
experiences, laughs, discussions and yes, hard work along with the odd
glass of wine. |
|
Fav cake: |
None, but I love liquorice. |
|
Heroines: |
Kate Adie and Orla Guerin |
|
|
 |
Committee |
Pat Scott |
|
About me: |
As the most senior member of the team in years if not
in rank I attempt to kerb the wilder schemes of these enterprising
youngsters –usually without success! I am a retired Home Economics
teacher (still ranting about the demise of my subject in schools
-don't get me started). I am happiest when pottering in the garden and
have what my family regard as an obsessive attachment to my compost
bins and their squishy contents. |
|
Fav cake: |
Rich fruit cake with lots of marzipan - Christmas,
Birthday, Fridays any excuse will do. Oh, and Suzanne's chocolate
crunch, we all look forward to committee meeting at her house! |
|
Heroines: |
Mo Molem and Aung San Suu Kyi (leader of the Burmese
democracy movement) |
|
|
 |
Committee |
Lisa Underdown |
|
About me: |
I’m always a busy bee on the go! I love spending time
with my 2 children, family & friends. I have worked in a hotel for 15
yrs where I became a good organiser and great socialite! It is my
first year with the SMWI which I am enjoying being a part of. |
|
Fav cake: |
Carrot or Chocolate but would prefer a BIG packet of
kettle chips any day! |
|
Heroines: |
Fern Cotton & Davina McCall - I just love funny, down
to earth ladies that are good role models (even though they have not
always been saints!) They use their celeb status to help charities and
good causes. |
