Craft4Crafters 30/03 - 01/04 2023

Brixham Soroptimists had a stand at the Craft 4 Crafters show at Westpoint in Exeter to display the work that the club do.

The show was a great success and we displayed the quilt that members made for the Tuk Tuk and the breast care cushions that we make for the breast care unit at Torbay Hospital.

Leaflets were given to many of the visitors about the work that our clubs partake in and we shared a spot at the show with SI Plymouth

Santa Fun Run 2022

Brixham Soroptimists and The Brixham Harriers were very pleased to be able to hand over a cheque for £3,000 to The Brixham Food Bank following the Santa Run last December. This very successful event is becoming a popular date for many folk in Brixham and around the bay. Thanks to the generosity of our many supporters a street collection was held which raised £318.62. A huge thank you to everyone who took part, helped with the organisation and to The Brixham Yacht Club for the use of their premises for registration and also for allowing us to have the cheque presentation at the club.
The Santa Run this year will be on Sunday 3rd December, a date for your diaries, an event not to be missed.
