This is the first newsletter since Jan 2020, and much has changed during this time with no Twinning events held, but it is now hoped to start twinning activities once again.
Committee Members news 2021
A very brief Committee meeting was held recently and the following resignations were received:
Brian has had to resign as Chairman with great regret as he has thoroughly enjoyed his many years as a very successful chairman. Laurence has offered to take over the role temporarily until an AGM can be held. Her offer was received with many thanks.
Chris and Judith Gwatkin are unfortunately unable to continue as Treasurer and Secretary after many years of success in these roles. The committee are looking for volunteers to take on these roles.

A meeting has been arranged for Tuesday Oct. 19th at the Wellington Town Council Chamber, at the back of the Wellington Library, at 7pm.
Laurence is calling the meeting ‘A la Recherche du Temps Perdu’ and the aim is to discuss and share ideas about the future of the Twinning Association. Everybody welcome – members, friends, relatives, neighbours etc. etc.
The meeting will be as Covid safe as possible. The Council Chamber is a large room with plenty of space for social distancing. Mask wearing is encouraged.
