IDHS August Newsletter

 It was lovely top see some members returning to our meeting in July and hopefully even more will return for our August meeting.

Our next meeting is Thursday August 19th at 7.30pm where Ben Turner will be returning and transporting us to The Magical Gardens of Tresco. There will also be plants and books for sale from Ben.

We will be holding the raffle and members competitons at this meeting  so come and collect some points for the annual awards!

Don't forget to pick up your membership cards

Just to remind you we have the following Covid precautions in place:

  • Please do not attend if you are feeling unwell
  • We would like everyone to wear masks (except the speaker)
  • We would request that you use the sanitiser at the door entry before you sign in
  • We will have windows and doors open to allow a through draft so please dress accordingly
  • There will be no refreshments although we are looking to restart these in September with a new format to reduce contact    ( please bring your own water if required)
  • The chairs will be well distanced
  • Please DO NOT help put the chairs away at the end as we have to re-sanitise them before folding
