President's Day 2024

 

During August we celebrated President's Day.  Joyce Youngman, our President, organised a super afternoon with terrific entertainment, followed by a delicious afternoon tea.

 

Jane Hoggar had us all captivated with her amazing story of how she became a Bluebell Girl, dancing at the Lido de Paris on the Champs Elysees.

 

Joyce chose LILAC as our charity to support. Gaye Youngman, (Chair and Co-founder) talked about all the incredible fundraising they do, which provides much needed equipment and support for cancer sufferers and their families.  Thank you Joyce for a truly wonderful afternoon.

 

We also enjoyed a Halloween themed coffee morning at Chantry Hall, where there was interesting memorabilia including medals and photo albums dating back to the 1950s.The delightful Brenda Tubb created some beautiful arrangements, whilst regaling us with her amusing stories.

National Association of Flower Arrangement Societies

 

Norwich Flower Club is affiliated to the National Association of Flower Arrangement Societies (NAFAS). Flower arranging clubs and societies banded together as the National Association of Flower Arrangement Societies in 1959. The Association has since been a unifying and guiding mainstay to thousands of men, women and juniors whose love of flowers has opened up a whole new world of creativity. In 1984 NAFAS was granted charitable status in recognition of its education activities. It ranks among the most notable specialised National Associations.

 

 

Norwich Flower Club lies within NAFAS Area 1 (East of England).The East of England Area was formed in 1954 and is the largest of the 21 Areas of NAFAS.  There are 107 clubs with two junior club.  Because of the geographical spread of the Area, which extends some 7,000 square miles, a decision was made in 1958 to form Groups within the Area.  The five Groups, namely Cambridge, Colchester, East Suffolk, King's Lynn and Norwich act as a liaison between the Clubs within their Group and the Area Association.
