Our President, Viv Pixton, has asked me the circulate the following to you:-
Dear Sandford WI members
I am very sorry to inform you that I have decided to cancel various meetings. This decision was made with the support of the Committee, except for 2 members that I could not speak to.
The reason for these cancellations follows the Prime Minister and the Deputy Chief Medical Officer's advice from last night and this morning and that was, not to attend unnecessary gatherings.
The cancelled Events:
6th April 2020 - Committee meeting
14th April 2020 - WI members meeting
7th May 2020 - Wincanton Ladies Day
16th May 2020 - May Fair on the Green
Book Clubs
Craft Club
Lunch Club
Skittles Club
The exception:
Walking Club - to arrive independently and enjoy a nice walk in the open air. I'm sure Pat will be in touch.
The situation can then be reviewed on a monthly basis.
I understand we are entering the peak period of the Coronavirus and wish everyone to take great care of themselves. If there are members under the age of 70 that would like to help fellow members, please let me know.
I understand from Jenny Barley that the Spar Shop in Sandford is introducing a free delivery service. If you give them your name and telephone number, they will phone you each morning to see if there is anything that you require.
Keep yourselves safe and well and we will party after it's all over.
All good wishes
Viv x
Sandford WI President
