Spring Lunch

As you can see we had another great lunch at Smallwood Lodge in Newport, we will plan to arrange another one in the summer, so watch this space.

Spring Lunch

Our Spring Lunch will be held on 4th April at Smallwood Lodge Restaurant and Tea Rooms in Upper Bar  Newport  Shropshire at 12.30.  If you would like to attend please email MagHoll@Aol.com for an invite to the event or follow this link http://www.facebook.com/n/?event.php&eid=106671216123416&mid=5ad5575G5af3bf45241dG4c9179G23&bcode=eyhex1EG&n_m=maggie%40pictureshopandgallery.co.uk.   Smallwood Lodge is a lovely black and white building with a pretty rose garden and is situation right on the high street with parking in the nearby Co-op.

Where are we going ?

We are well into a new year now, so how are things going?   This was the question we asked ourselves today and the answers were all positive.  We discovered, if we didn't already know, that WiRE business women are resourseful, we don't let a set back diminish our enthusiasm, but seek fresh inspiration to move our business forward, perhaps in a different way.  We continually discover that many of our members have more than one business or various strands to one particular business.  Therefore, when one area is weak, another keeps things going and, more imporantly, keeps an income coming through.  As always, our members were keen to help one another with very constructive information.  We pride ourselves on not having a policy of thrusting our business cards upon each other or aiming to meet a particular number of new 'contacts', but allowing our members and visitors to engage with each other in a natural way and, thus discover for themselves the contacts which seem most appropriate.  As a result, people were chatting and exchanging information, notes were being taken, electronic devises were being 'stroked' with gay abandon - Newport WiRE truly Network.

Not a turkey dinner in sight as we celebrated the festive season with a lovely lunch at Smallwood Lodge in Newport.   Many thanks for all who attended and made it such fun, we are planning to make this a seasonal event with our next lunch date coming up this Spring.
