              Club. Our speaker this month was Luch Nayler, Lucy gave a most interesting

              a most enjoyable and fascinating talk on sustainability.
 A really interesting speaker, enjoyed by us all.

            |  | In October this year, Mt Edgcumbe Hospital is celebrating their 
              45th anniversary and to support this special occasion members of 
              Bodmin have been busy knitting teddies in pink and lime green (the 
              colours of the hospital) plus lovely warm knitted hats, fingerless 
              mittens, jumpers and some beautiful crocheted blankets, just right 
              for our current weather. More beautiful memory boxes have been created 
              as their bereavement councillor mentioned that families like to 
              buy these for keepsakes, momentoes and special items after a loved 
              one has passed. Many other items have also been made for their sales 
              table to help support this wonderful charity. The Neonatal Unit 
              at Treliske Hospital has also been benefitting from our craft members 
              expertise with donation of a selection of beautiful quilts and covers.
 From April 
                to September the Club has a walking group which ventures out monthly 
                to walk round the Bodmin area. The first walk of the year is always 
                along the Camel Trail with a stop for coffee at the cafe. Other 
                walks have been to Laveddon and Lanhydrock House with the final 
                outing in October this time walking to various sites in the Town 
                and a final stop at Barnecutts for refreshments. Throughout 
                June, July, August and September Bodmin members have been holding 
                afternoon cream teas in St. Petroc's Church with support from 
                Church members. Through the hard work of members who have helped 
                and given up their time on the four, Sunday afternoons plus donations 
                from members, the events have been highly successful and the money 
                raised, which is shared between the Club and the Church, will 
                contribute to supporting local families over the Christmas period. Mt Edgcumbe

              group members have ben busy making cushions and bed throws for Mount 
              Edgcumbe Hospice. They will be used for their patients or to sell 
              on their craft sales table raising vital funds for the hospice. 
              To help publicise Inner Wheel, adhesive labels are attached to the 
              items which is a great way to advertise our Club and show one of 
              the ways we work within our community plus rewarding to know that 
              we can make a difference. The craft group members are now looking 
              to create more projects and come up with ideas to further support

              supporters went down to Bodmin Airfield on 2nd July and did a sponsored 
              gyro flight in aid of her charities. The flight was 30 mins, down 
              to the Fowey estuary and back. Di said the scenery was beautiful 
              but those of us who stayed on the ground were happy to take her 
              word for it. Her charities are Bude Sea Pool, Bude Exercising for 
              Mobility, Bude Parkinson's Society and CLIC Sargent. People gave 
              very generously and around £2,000 was raised. She's going 
              to be a hard act to follow! Di in flying

              Bodmin Inner Wheel club decorated their adopted flower bed in the 
              town for the 80th V.E day celebrations. The Mayor of Bodmin attended 
              to see the bed and to say what good work the club achieves in the 
              town. |

              DISTRICT 129 TRERISE 19 MAY 2025 | 
           
            |  | IW 
              District 129 had an outing to Trerice House near Newquay. The sun 
              shone, members had time to stroll around the house, and gardens. 
              Eat and drink and chat together. The highlight of the day was the 
              most informative talk that was provided for some of the members 
              about how the Tudors dressed. Lady Mary wore her night wear, and her maids took us through the 
              many layers that a wealthy lady would wear to get dressed. All the 
              costumes had been handmade by volunteers who make up the Trerice 
              Sewing Club. Our members were then given the opportunity to be dressed 
              and they proudly paraded around the grounds, and had their photograph 
              taken in front of the house.
 A huge thank you to the National Trust Staff and volunteers for 
              a wonderful day.

            |  | At 
              the recent meeting of the Inner Wheel Club of Tavistock, Jenny Thomas, 
              local speaker and advocate for Cardiac Risk in the Young (CRY) gave 
              a moving talk about the work of CRY, which aims to raise awareness, 
              fund research, provide screening for 14 to 25 year olds and support 
              bereaved families, who have lost a young adult from a cardiac death. 
              On average 12 young people die of undiagnosed heart conditions every 
              week in the UK. Screening tends to find one young person with a heart condition 
              in every 100 screened. They also fund genetic research into heart 
              conditions. A day of screening costs about £7000 and can see 
              125 people. All of the 2012 UK Olympic Team were screened by CRY.
 A cheque for £1000 was donated to the charity.

            |  | My 
              name is Joyce Moir and I have been a member of Inner Wheel for 58 
              years. I started in Camelford in 1967 when my husband and I moved 
              there from London for work. I was invited to join Inner Wheel and 
              it was a new club, just started and we were all young and eager 
              to work for Inner Wheel. After 5 years there we moved to Launceston and I was to join Launceston 
              Inner Wheel which I did. I have enjoyed my many years as a member 
              and made many friends and still do. I have been President twice 
              and Secretary many times also Club Correspondent.
 I have found Inner Wheel very interesting and enjoy the meetings, 
              coffee mornings etc.
 I look forward to a few more years of possible as I am 94 years 
              of age! Joyce Moir

              of Inner Wheel for the Trevi foundation in Plymouth to give to those 
              having a tough time at present. Trevi is a nationally award-winning womens and childrens
