Today we had our AGM where we elected a new committee for the coming year and approved our charitable distributions.
Thanks to Carol McIlwaine for presiding over the elections and twisting a few arms for the nominations. Thanks to all the members of last year's committee and everyone who helped with fundraising, welfare, welcoming and social events for all their hard work during the year.
The new committee includes a few newcomers to the Club, so a warm welcome to you ladies!
You can see a photo of our new committee on our Who we are page.

Last week our twin island republic had the pleasure of hosting HRH Prince Edward, the Earl of Wessex and his wife, Sophie, the Couness of Wessex. I know that our President, Pauline, enjoyed attending a luncheon held in their honour. Does anyone have any photos or snippets they would like to share?

The UKWC blog has been very quiet recently and I do apologise for the absence of updates to the website.
I do want to help keep the Club alive, so feel free to contact me with information, photos and updates for the website and I will do my best to include them.
Last month I had the pleasure of attending the fundraising film premier of The Iron Lady. Although I took my 13 year old son along, who struggled to stay awake (clearly didn't appreciate the history lesson), I really enjoyed it and the Club raised almost $40,000 with the event. Congratulations to everyone involved!
This month we have the elections for the new committee. I wish everyone good luck with volunteering and carrying on all the good work.
On 9th June there will be a Grand Diamond Jubilee ball at the Hyatt Hotel. Be sure to put the date in your diary and book your tickets early to avoid disappointment. It's sure to be a wonderful event, and what a nice excuse to buy a new dress! Please contact Terri Sheed via ukwctt@gmail.com if you would like to help with this event.
