Karin Snape, fabulous member of Cheshire Federation of WIs and of our Leisure For Pleasure Sub Committee has been a bit absent recently. Undertaking an amazing challenge. She's getting nearer to the Federation - why not follow her and see if you can cheer her on.

What a fantastic afternoon we had today. – at North West, England
We had a blast at Halton MakeFest! We had so much fun coding Spheros with you all. The Mayor of Halton also paid us a visit and even had a go with some of the Luminate exhibitions. We hope you all had as much fun as we did. #HaltonMakeFest
