Hooe Open Group: Thanks to Edna and Nicki for forwarding their latest report from the meeting last Friday 13th May...’Although the date was ominous, the omen for the day was extremely positive, very upbeat with lots of friendly banter. Another new member joined, extending the lively group even further, and everyone enjoyed the afternoon. The speaker was a representative from the local branch of the Red Cross, who gave a fascinating overview of the foundation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent movement in 1863 by the Swiss philanthropist Henry Dunant. From the period of the two world wars, to the present day, these groups have provided extensive, invaluable support both Nationally and Internationally; and as gesture of thanks, the Ladies of the Open Group gave a cheque for £30, for the speaker to pass on to the organisations, as a donation. The next meeting of the Hooe Open Group is on Friday 10th June, 2.30pm, when there will be Cream Teas, a Quiz and lots more fun to be had! Call Edna on 01424 842591 for more details.’
