Ladies’ club with ‘wheel’ appeal
10:47am Thursday 28th May 2009 in
THE popularity of the Ladies’ Inner Wheel organisation is evident from this 1960s picture taken at the old Rose Room of the Locarno, in Burnley.
It shows the Burnley branch’s charter dinner in 1963.
The principal guest for the evening was Mrs R G Clayton, a member of the club and chairman of No 19 district.
Also among the guests were the president of Burnley Business and Professional Women’s Club, Mrs E F Hephrun; president of the Soroptimists, Miss M Blackwood; and chairman of the local Ladies’ Circle, Mrs S Cannon.
They were received by Burnley president Mrs A F Reynard.
