International Evening: Ann Widdecombe - 26 3 2010

Fri, Mar 26th 2010 at 12:00 am - 2:00 am

With Guest Speaker Ann Widdecombe MP


On Friday 26th March we had our annual International Evening which is run jointly by the Inner Wheel Club of Northampton and the Rotary Club of Northampton, and as usual was a great success.

Our Speaker, Ann Widdecombe was very interesting and amusing. Ann very kindly signed her books for us, the proceeds of which she donated a percentage to our evening. I am sure that we have achieved our goals for REMIT, Shelter Box and Mercy Ships. I would like to thank the members of Inner Wheel and Rotary for helping to make the night so successful.
