The General Meeting

I am writing this four days after attending the General Meeting.

Like myself, I know that many of you found it very informative and we heard of the celebration of 10 years of the Literacy and Parenting programmes.

We heard how over the last 10 years, 73,721 people have joined a literacy circle with 53,148 going on to pass their exam to achieve a recognised literacy level. This work and any new initiatives requires funding and one of the ways we can achieve this is through the ‘Global Village Fair’ catalogue which was publicised in the last edition of MU News.

I would like to thank Sheila Swift and her helpers who worked so hard on the gift stall at the Guild Hall. Sheila and the literature reps will have some of the unsold items in their stock, so look out for them when they visit the branches.

We now have to look forward and remember that the Mothers’ Union is not just branch based, but we also need to support our Deaneries and Diocese and the work of the Mothers’ Union worldwide.

Even though we are in the middle of summer holidays, here in Marketing, our thoughts are already turning to Christmas and over the next few weeks the Diary and Christmas card order forms will be in the branches, so please get your orders in early to avoid disappointment.

Don’t forget the Literature Reps over the next few months. They will have the Christmas cards in their stock and would love to come to your branch meeting to show all the new items they will have for sale.

Jenny Towers - Unit Co-ordinator
