Hi
this is just a quick fill in form last night's meeting, most of which we spoke about arrangements for Hedy coming.

Both Annie & I will be away by the time she comes, so am trying to make sure things get divided out & not too much falls to Patrick.

We are hoping to have a meeting in the afternoon she is here (11th Oct), inviting varoius people who potentailly have some influence (councillors, trade union activists, church leaders, activists etc), from 3-4.30pm, offering the chance for dialogue. This still needs to be confirmed, but if it goes ahead then :
- Sue- we wondered if you would be up for chairing/facilitati ng meeting (hopefully 10-15 people)
- Valerie- we wondered if you would be up for doing teas & coffees (there is kitchen at cathedral social centre)

Publicity: Cathedral will do press relaese & a poster. But we plan to do an additional poster to reach people who are probably not going to see theirs. Need people to volunteer to put posters up.

Hosting:
Patrick will pick Hedy up from Manchester & should be in Lancaster by 12 noon. Valerie- is it ok for her to come directly to your house then, so she can relax and have lunch with you (& maybe a walk in the park). Patrick has agreed to do driving her around for day. Then she'll go to afternoon meeting, then need to figure out dinner arrangeemnts. Given her age I think we need to make sure she has enough time to chill & relax, so I'm thinking its probably better to have her back to your house Valerie for dinner, rather then going out. What do people think? Can anyone offer to do any of the cooking, so it doesn't all come to Valerie?

be great if people could respond to this on the list
