PRESIDENT'S SEPTEMBER MESSAGE

I know how busy you are so short and sweet this month from me but we do have a lot coming your way.

CPD. We have some terrific sessions booked in between now and year end. New topics,new speakers and this week we will be releasing 1 CPD event every day so please do get on these quickly. For a sneak preview go to https://cms.localinstitutes.cii.co.uk/cheltenham-gloucester/home/events/forthcoming-events/

Congratulations Otto who is the inaugural IICG 2020 pet at home picture winner. He won by a single vote and Otto and his owner will be receiving their winning doggy bag very soon. £87 was raised for Cheltenham Animal Shelter. Thankyou everyone.

This Saturday 5th September I along with council members Zofia Weaver, Zoe Davis, Chelsea Sparey (all Ecclesiastical ) and Kamila Niekoraniec (PIB) will be completing the Cheltenham '3 Peaks' challenge walking a total of 22 miles.

We will be starting at 7.30am near the Brewery Quarter before heading to Crickley, Leckhampton and Cleeve Hills before back to the Brewery Quarter, hopefully around 8 hours later. We are hoping to provide the Animal Shelter with much needed funds at this particularly difficult time. All donations are very welcome as would some encouragement on the day if you see us!

You can donate via: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/simonmcgill51 Thankyou.

So lots coming your way as we continue this virtual service combined with a bit of external activity where we can. Hope to see some of you at the IICG Zoom quiz later this month (details to follow) and continued best wishes to you and your families.

Simon
