Reception Attended by the Mayor of Bath

In January, members and friends enjoyed a reception attended by the Mayor of Bath.  It was an opportunity to thank everyone for their involvement with twinning in the past year and to discuss plans for the coming year.  These currently include proposals for about seven different groups from Brunswick and (beyond) to visit Bath.  It’s going to be another busy year! Normal activities continue with our regular monthly committee meeting on 8th February, followed by our online Book Club with members of the Brunswick DEG.  New participants are always welcome and can get in touch under “Contact us”.
