About District 2
Dear Friends
We are about to commence the Inner Wheel year 2023/2024 which, as you know, celebrates our 100th year. This, by any standard, is quite a magnificent and significant achievement. The year ahead gives us all an opportunity to rise to the occasion and challenges of “100 for 100”. Whether it will be; knitting little baby cannula sleeves, baby hats to fill shoe boxes, Afternoon Teas or 100 items for the food bank, the choice is yours but make sure you have fun while doing it. Although the coming year should prove exciting,
energetic and fun, it is sad to note that we will not have the Falkirk Club with us, however, there are a number of ladies who will continue “At Large”.
District Meetings are IMPORTANT events in our calendar and I would encourage those who can to come along and enjoy the experience and
friendship. Our first District Meeting will be on the 2nd September in Peebles, so here is your first (and my first as Chairman) opportunity to meet you all there. So come on girls I need your support.
Just a reminder that the sales of the “Margaret Golding Rose” are doing well and I would encourage you to purchase one for yourself or as a gift.
Finally, I thank you for the opportunity to serve as your District Chairman and for the confidence you have in me.

Welcome to our Inner Wheel Centenary year
Thank you for giving me the opportunity and privilege of becoming your Association President in this special and exciting year.
I look forward to working hard with the Executive Team and all of you to strengthen our membership and promote Inner Wheel and all it represents. The Margarette Golding Rose, 100 for 100 activities supporting BEAT and our Inner Wheel Strategy gives us a golden opportunity to do this.
“Shine a Light” IIW President Trish’s message helps Inner Wheel to focus its efforts at the Heart of the Community. We can shine our light on current members, the service they provide and spotlight our success in making a difference to people’s lives.
2023- 2024 promises to be an extraordinary year. I wish you every success in your clubs and districts embracing fun, friendship and attracting new members.
In friendship
