Social Meeting at Squires Garden Centre
Mon, Jan 30th 2023 at 12:30 pm - 2:00 pm
We were delighted that Cllr Julia Cambridge, Mayor of Richmond upon Thames accepted our invitation to be guest speaker.
Our meeting this week was held at Squires Garden Centre, Twickenham, at the kind invitation of Colin Squire.
We were delighted to welcome the Mayor of Richmond upon Thames, Councillor Julia Cambridge, who told us about her work as Mayor and her nominated charity for the year RUILS.
The charity, based in Teddington, supports disabled children and adults with long term health and mental health conditions to live life independently and to be part of the community.
We were also pleased to be joined on this occasion by Lesley Seddon, Chair of Trustees of Homelink, Day Respite Care Centre in Whitton and to learn more about that charity also.
