Chair's Letter
Welcome
Welcome to the latest edition of Special Delivery. I feel incredibly lucky to be part of a very active Branch with so much going on and many inspirational volunteers. Following our request earlier in the Summer, we have had many lovely ladies come forward to volunteer. Thank you so much! There are always new vacancies posted every week here asking for a variety of skills, so please do consider getting involved however big or small your available time is. Having volunteered for over two years now, I have learnt a lot, had a lot of fun and been inspired by impressive volunteers. Special thanks to our departing volunteers Karen for leading our Babies & Crawlers Playgroup so magnificently and to Beth for being such a great Membership Secretary. Thank you to Valentina of Photograface for providing our coverphoto and also to IMBS Spa, SW12 for the shoot location, a baby-friendy urban spa and also to Jenny our Birth Groups Coordinator and covergirl!
The Autumn diary is looking busy already-check out our webpages for events and activities. Aside from our usual playgroups, courses, walks and coffee meetups, we are excited to announce The Big Push in Battersea Park on 11th September, the Antenatal Welcome Evening on the 15th September, our next Nearly New Sale on the 24th September and also our Jubilee Halloween Event on 15th October, all in Battersea.
Do get in touch if you would like to share your parenting stories, birth announcements and suggestions for future issues. Follow us on Facebook @ClaphamNCT, also our Twitter @ClaphamNCT for daily updates on Branch events and discounts.
Hope to meet you soon!
