In Brief Townswomen’s Guild Zooms through lockdown Due to Covid-19 restrictions over the last year, Willow Brook Townswomen’s Guild has been unable to hold its regular monthly meetings and associated activities. However, the guild has risen to the challenges of lockdown and continued regular contact by innovative means, including via Zoom. A guild spokesperson said: “Although we’ve not been able to get together in our usual way, members have been enthusiastic about staying in touch by other means. This includes meeting outside in small groups of six when permissible and most recently by using Zoom. This was a new way of communicating for many members, but we’ve gone from strength to strength. In addition to holding monthly online catchups we also hold Book Club meetings via Zoom which is very successful and enjoyable. We intend to continue these virtual meetings until meetings in person can resume, hopefully in the not-too-distant future.” “We warmly encourage anyone with an interest in the guild to ‘like’ our Facebook page, where we’ll provide updates as to when activities can begin again.” The guild usually meets on the second Tuesday of each month, 7.30pm to 9.30pm at the Jubilee Centre, Bradley Stoke. New members are always welcome. For further information, please contact Jannice on 01454 615040.
