Steph is a busy lady- always willing to help. A   former member of Inner Wheel in Nottingham, Steph and husband Barry moved to Altrincham in 2015  near to their three children and grandchildren.  Steph has been Secretary twice and now President for the second time so we are looking forward to  another great year, full of fun and enthusiasm.

Steph has inspired us with her personal service to the community – a founder volunteer for Home Start which helps families with young children, Steph has also given many hours each week to Cruse Bereavement Care both in Nottingham and Greater Manchester. As an interesting speaker Steph  has informed the club about Jewish traditions  especially Jewish New Year when she brought tasty samples of food and Hanukkah  with a Menorah and candles.

The Little Lighthouse Baby Bank in Wythenshawe is Steph’s chosen charity. We are collecting items for babies and toddlers which will go to struggling families. High chairs to baby clothes, nappies, toys and bedding are all very welcome.
