EVENTS FOR EVERYONE

Last year our annual BBQ at Peggy and Steve's chalet on the fitties was so wet that Steve cooked in a souwester. But everyone came along, the food and drink was first class and inevitably the Quiz was won by the Hyldon-Kings

THIS YEAR THE DATE TO REMEMBER IS 28th JUNE, for a barbeque at 52 Main Road on the Fitties. 1pm to 4pm and £5 for adults and £2 for children. There'll be a scrumptious array of food, a Quiz and of course, a Raffle .Members and supporters welcome.

SIXTY YEARS OF THE N H S is something the Labour Movement should celebrate and there are two events in July:

4thJULY; Jane Lewington, Chief Executive of Care Trust Plus is coming to the Management Committee at Cleethorpes Road to talk about the NHS today. The meeting is for all members and supporters - it starts at 7pm and there will be light refreshments as usual.

12th JULY We're having a stall in Brewery Street to celebrate 60 years of NHS and we need people to hand out leaflets, and talk about Labour's greatest achievement. 10am to 1pm.

It's a hundred years since women were given the right to stand in local elections. They had a huge battle to manoeuvre themselves into a position where their views and votes could count. We have had a good record in Grimsby on the whole. In 1996 the Labour Group in the new Unitary Authority started out with a fifty-fifty split - and and we are back to this again, but sadly with a very much smaller Group. Bags of room for improvement Are you interested?
