AWBS International Women's Club

AWBS International Women's Club AWBS celebrates inclusiveness and friendship for women of Surrey & Berkshire Have a look at our Website to see what we can offer you.

AWBS International Women's Club offers social, cultural & philanthropic activities for the enjoyment/enrichment of its members in Surrey/ Berkshire areas. We are an international club of over two hundred members, who have moved to the UK, some for their first overseas assignment, others for their umpteenth; some have settled in, others are on short assignments. Additionally we have many English me

mbers, often who have been expats themselves and feel an affiliation with an international group. All are looking to enjoy their experience and take advantage of living near one of the most exciting cities in the world. As with all International Womens Clubs around the world, we have had to morph our various activities online due to Covid. AWBS follows UK Government guidelines and look forward to when we can meet in person again. AWBS is a friendly club offering amazing opportunities to travel, do charity work, attend lectures and join over 25 activities all organized by our wonderful AWBS members. Above all it is a club where you will make friends and get support from other ladies like you who have been through the same experience you have by having an international connection. Most of the activities take place during the day so you can always get home for when your children have finished school. Our General Meetings are still taking place, online via zoom as are many of our activities. Please visit our website at www.awbs.org.uk or email [email protected] for more details. We look forward to welcoming you soon to our thriving club.

is joining us ladies on Monday 12th please do come along and bring friends too. His talk on how the mind can heal the body explains how the mind and brain can influence the body’s biology, including how belief and expectation can trigger real physiological changes — often using examples like the placebo effect to show how belief affects health outcomes. He will also talk about the science of kindness — how acts of kindness can improve mental and physical health, reduce stress and even support heart and immune function. He often discusses this in both personal and leadership contexts. This really is one not to be missed! www.awbs.org.uk

🎄Best wishes to all from Glorious Gardens! 🎄

Yesterday we celebrated the festive season with a bang at Blenheim Palace with Andy Mills, head gardener there and Brian, one of the 14 staff team managing the 100 acre garden. We got a backstage tour with access to several private areas and others being redesigned.

Three years ago, Andy took on a 10 year challenge to restaure the dishevelled grounds to their original splendour created successively by Achille Duchene and Capability Brown and enhance new areas. You can see some on going progress on this link.

https://www.blenheimpalace.com/estate/gardens-and-parkland/restoration.html

From managing the largest orchard in Europe to planting 4000 alliums in the Italian gardens, working with RHS to find resisting buxus breeds to redesign them as finely as lace vs carpet motive, or enhancing the peaceful Temple of Health, nothing stops Andy and his team, not even a very busy on going event calendar such as Halloween or the Xmas light trail.

Andy spreads his passion and energy like fire and we all were grateful that he and Brian could spare more than 2hrs of their busy schedule to share so much information with us. We promised we’ll be back to check on their progress and on his bet to win best white wine with his competing colleague at Chatsworth!

Bravo! 🍾 https://www.blenheimpalace.com
