Collection of Milk
Bottle Tops
Margaret Hamilton, who has been
collecting plastic milk bottle tops for
charity, has had to stop. Please do
not take any further bottle tops to
the Community Centre. Margaret
thanks all who have helped with the
collection over the past months.
Local Resident offers
crime talks.
Newly retired Malcolm Acreman is an
Age UK volunteer and has been
trained in presenting information on
crimes such as scams, identity theft
and distraction burglary, which are
often targeted at people later in life.
His talks, with a DVD, take about an
hour. If any local organisations
would like to take advantage of his
offer they should email Malcolm on
acreman533@btinternet.com, or call
him on 01202 842432.

Canford & Merley
Women‛s Institute
We meet on the second Wednesday
of the month at 7.15 for 7.30
p.m. at Merley Community Centre,
and I am pleased to say that each
month sees new members arriving.
Our Winter programme included
some interesting illustrated talks
and the final meeting of last year
culminated with a superb magician
who entertained us for our Christmas
celebrations.
I must thank all our members who
make our meetings so friendly and
informative. Next year has a varied
and interesting program already
planned. If you have other areas of
interest, e.g. Scrabble, Reading,
Craft or Badminton we have smaller
get-togethers throughout the
month to cater for all interests. We
even have a number of members
who organise themselves into
small walking groups, and others
who just go out together once a
month for a meal. Our recent Skittles
Evening saw over 100 members
and their partners gather for a
Ploughman’s Supper. The evening
went well, raising over £150 for
Charity.
Do come along and give us a try.
Please ring Penny, our President,
on 885866 for further information.
