WOMEN OF KENT LUNCHEON Honouring the Volunteering and Work of Kent Women Patron: The Countess Mountbatten of Burma CBE, CD, JP, DL President: The Lady Kingsdown OBE Chairman: Jo Monteuuis Vice-Chairman: Fiona Sunley Treasurer: Liz Bell Secretary: Jacquie Corbyn Dear Madam, January, 2014 The twenty third Women of Kent Luncheon will take place on Wednesday 14th May 2014 at 12 for 12.30pm at the Mercure Maidstone Great Danes Hotel. The purpose of this bi-annual Luncheon is to bring together and honour women who have given outstanding service to the County of Kent through their professional or voluntary work. It is always an enjoyable occasion and gives an opportunity for our guests to exchange views with others representing many organisations in Kent. At the same time the Luncheon raises a substantial sum for a Kent charity. In 2012 we donated £10,000 to Kent Minds. Our chosen charity for this Luncheon is Dementia UK, in support of their Admiral Nurses in Kent. Admiral Nurses are qualified mental health nurses specialising in dementia care. Their role is to help the families affected by dementia and improve the quality of their life with emotional and psychological support and co-ordinated care provision and practical assistance. The speaker will be the highly acclaimed novelist Joanna Trollope OBE, whose contemporary reworking of Jane Austen’s “Sense and Sensibility” launched The Austen Project last year. Tickets are £26 for the lunch and any monies in excess of this amount will go to the charity. Below is an application form and we very much hope that you will be able to attend. Please make your cheque payable to “Women of Kent Luncheon” and return it, together with the completed form and a stamped addressed envelope to the address below.
