WA Region Meeting and SI Mandurah 10th Birthday Celebration - NOW CLOSED FOR BOOKINGS

WA Region will be holding their September meeting at The Sebel Mandurah on Saturday 17 September 2022 commencing at 10:00 am.  This will include a book launch by SI Mandurah member, Regine Andersen - "Stumbling Blocks OR Stepping Stones".  Tea, coffee, and light morning tea will be served.

Immediately following this event, commencing at 12:30 pm, will be the Soroptimist International of Mandurah club's 10th Birthday Celebrations.  This will take the form of a three-course sit-down lunch and special address by the Hon Dr Cheryl Davenport AM, a former WA Labor politician and the architect of Australia's FIRST comprehensive Abortion Law Reform.  She was instrumental in removing the anachronistic abortion laws from the WA Criminal Code through the success of her Private Member's Bill.  Dr Davenport is also the current Patron of OVIS Community Services, Mandurah.  She will talk to us about her journey as a politician and her current activities, particularly in relation to domestic violence.

There will be no raffles on this occasion, but we do request people to bring along small stationery items such as pens, pencils, whiteboard markers, glue sticks, etc that can be used when preparing our back-to-school packs to be distributed to schools in the Peel region, OVIS Community Services and to Grandparents Raising Grandchildren.  These gifts will assist more disadvantaged students in our community as they return to school in 2023.

Please note that members who will be attending the WA Region meeting only must register online by selecting a WA Region Meeting Only ticket type which is free of charge.
