on paying quarterly even though I send them an invoice every month.

more expensive they are very reliable.

INSPIRING WOMEN
Annual Report 21122
Hammerwich Wl 2021 began with a Zoom meeting that incorporated our Annual
Meeting. ( Zoom was nothing new to us by now!). All our usual functions to prepare
for the meeting were carried out by email, Zoom and post, and we really appreciated
the full co-operation of our members, it made the end of year process very smooth
indeed. We were determined to make our year as varied and engaging as Covid
would allow.
We continued with Zoom meetings until in August we were finally able to meet up in
Sue Anker's beautiful garden, it was so good to see each other. We sang Jerusalem
and although we were a little rusty, we were enthusiastic! We hope the neighbours
enjoyed our singing too. We finally resumed face to face meetings in our Wl hall in
September .
We have been fortunate to have a variety of interesting speakers on varying
subjects including a luxury wedding planner; a Santangle session ( how relaxing
was it was to draw and be guided through creating a beautiful pattem) and a
'Dickens of a Tale,. Two of our members, Barbara Jarvis and Betty Robinson gave
fascinating talks, thank you to you both. we loved hearing about Hammerwich in
years gone by.
We enjoyed a quiz via Zoom on Easter and eggs; played 2 truths and a lie ( great
fun) and a lovely picnic in Hammerwich. Angela Walker made a number of craft
items that were sold in aid of the Mcmillan Cancer charity and we were able to make
a significant donation of fresh and tinned foods for Bumtwood Live at Home, thanks
to our generous members.
Our monthly Ramble was reintroduced and according to whichever Covid
regulations were in place, we walked in groups of 6, or more, and met for lunch
afterwards when permissible. Walking with friends has proved to be very popular
Our long awaited Centenary combined with our Christmas party took place at Druids
Heath Golf Club. What a fabulous evening! The food and Servi￿ was excellent,
each member received a beautiful cupcake , a member on each table won the table
arrangement and Angela Walker made a decorative box with a chocolate in it for
each member. The room was buzzing, we hadn't forgotten how to party after all!
The Bursary draw of £200 was won by Hazel Kitson.
We also held our usual Wl members Christmas party too, the Florrie Harvey cup
was won by Deb Mcmullen.

Part of our Centenary ￿lebratiOn was creating a History of Hammerwich Wl .
This culminated in the creation of a wonderful record of 100 years at Hammerwich,
bound in a beautiful book. We are so grateful to Jean Pritchard for her wonderful
work which celebrates our history for past, present and future members.
The Craft Club, whilst not meeting face to fa￿, continued to play a significant role
both for members and the wider community. Beautrful Easter baskets were made
along with a hand made Easter card and an egg for members. Also made were
Twiddle muffs , knitted goods for the Baby Bear Project and Christmas stockings. All
were so beautifully made, we are fortunate to have such talent in our Wl.
Sadly our choir, despite best efforts of Elizabeth and members, made the decision to
discontinue. The pandemic meant that there were not enough members to make it
viable to continue. We have had 9 years of ex￿lIent singing, friendship and
perf0mlan￿s. A big thank you to Elizabeth and all choir members .
It is noted with great pride that as the various Covid restrictions emerged, our
members responded with flexibility , friendship, a sense of humour and a 'can do
attitude, !
And that ladies is the very essen￿ of our wonderful Hammerwich Wl. Thank you to
all of you for another challenging but successful year.
