As well as giving generously, you all bought enthusiastically, (and encouraged by Reg, possibly even bought things you hadn't known you needed!) often giving more than was asked for items, and the grand total raised was £104.64.
At the brief AGM which followed, we discussed the next year's programme (see Programme page for full list of events), outings and using the hands-free attachment instead of the microphone at future meetings, which would hopefully be easier for speakers to use and give a more consistent sound quality. Our membership has grown over the last year and our financial situation is good and together with the money raised from the Bring & Buy, we carry forward a healthy balance to start the next year, which for Gardening Friends begins in September.
