It will be in Allison's house which is in the Northern part of Newcastle. You can call Allison for full directions on 01782 561428. <br /><br />As usual, we'll kick off around 10:30ish and if you can bring a healthy snack to share, all the better. I won't be able to bring the whole library but will bring a selection. If anyone has any books or topics they particularly want to read up on, let me know and I'll bring along anything that is relevant.<br /><br />We still need volunteers to host and help out with coffee mornings over the next few months. It would be good if we had a range of locations as some people are stuck for transport so can only reach certain areas. Helpers should turn up a little early and help to tidy up after too. Hopefully this will mean its not too much work for the host. The schedule at the moment looks like this:<br /><br />Tues. 19th August:<br />Host: Allison (north side of Newcastle)<br />Helper: Jane<br /> <br />Tues. 16th Sept.<br />Host: Louise in Congleton<br />Helper: Volunteer needed.<br /> <br />Tues. 21st Oct.<br />Host: Volunteer needed.<br />Helper: Volunteer needed.<br /> <br />Tues. 18th Nov.<br />Host: Volunteer needed.<br />Helper: Volunteer needed.<br /> <br />Tues. 16th Dec.<br />Host: Volunteer needed.<br />Helper: Volunteer needed.La Leche League Staffordshirehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04484826589119878198noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-331964194828582073.post-35588666849637950212008-08-04T10:18:00.000-07:002008-08-04T10:20:42.860-07:00August meetingThe August meeting will take place on Tuesday the 5th of August at 10:30.
