Sisters of Shields WI have now held their 1st meeting in their new venue.

We have been warmly welcomed and hopefully our members will enjoy more monthly meetings & social occasions at Harton Masonic Hall .

Shah Lalon Amin was our first guest speaker , owner of Delhi 6 Indian restaurant , South Shields .

His talk was both inspiring & entertaining ! Funny and at times emotional.
He spoke about his family heritage , working life , Coffee Table Project idea and much more !

Shah asked to donate his fee to a food bank charity . We chose Hospitality & Hope and we will deliver food items donated by our members too .

**Follow Shah on Facebook to see snippet videos of his ‘Ten Tables’ talk.
