Members of WiCR along with Jools and Richard Burningham from Community Rail Network joined with the steering group on the 29th of June to celebrate our 4th birthday in style.
Zoom style, of course
Marion summarised our achievements so far and outlined our objectives for the next five years. She stressed the importance of increasing membership and asked all members to ‘get engaged and get involved’ as we go forward with work in our key areas of mentoring, networking, and inclusivity.
Then it was party time!
Richard Lyson’s quiz questions led us from pop divas through to vodka cocktails by way of 19th century novelists.
Amazing Women all!
Karen’s scavenger hunt sent us off to find things we wear on our heads(and made us wear them!)
In the ‘guess the use of the unusual objects’ game, Sheila’s spurtle had most of us baffled.(It’s a traditional Scottish porridge spoon)
We sang ‘Happy Birthday’, ate cake, lit candles, and raised a glass to Women in Community Rail.
We’ve come a long way in four years!
