10.01.2022 We were fortunate to have John Berger, Executive Officer of the WA Alliance to End Homelessness, speak to us at our September meeting. So much food for thought.

10.01.2022 Our Soroptimist sisters at SI on the Terrace are holding a fundraising movie evening on Thursday 15 October at 6.00pm. The film is Rams and details are on the flier. It starts Sam Neil and Michael Caton and was filmed in Mt Barker, so whats not to like?

09.01.2022 COVID gave us all a bit of a rest and re-group for a few months but we are tracking as usual now, with our Monthly General meetings providing us with stimulus and incentive with both our guest speakers and several new members. At our August meeting we welcomed Ivy and Kate as new members, and our at our September meeting we welcomed Freda. We are thrilled to have you join us and hope you enjoy being part of the SI South Perth family.

09.01.2022 What do you do with your plastic drink bottle lids? We collect them for Greenbatch. Watch the video below to see what you can and cant recycle, and collect your lids for your local Soroptimist member to pass on to Greenbatch.

07.01.2022 Tomorrow, May 21st marks International Tea Day Tea is the worlds most-consumed drink, after water. Its production and processing constitute a main source ...of livelihoods for millions of families. The tea industry provides jobs and plays a central role in rural development. As the UN reminds us: "Tea production and processing contribute to the reduction of extreme poverty (SDG 1), the fight against hunger (SDG 2), the empowerment of women (SDG 5) and the sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems (SDG 15)". Women constitute more than 50% of the workforce on tea plantations and often do not have access to education. #wednesdaywisdom #westandupforwomen #soroptimisteurope #internationalteaday #womensempowerment #SDG #eleanorroosevelt See more

01.01.2022 Physically distanced and sanitised, we were finally able to meet face to face at our Monthly Meeting last Tuesday. We had quite a few guests, including Lorraine Hewitt, President of the South Perth/Como branch of the CWA, who gave us an indication of how closely aligned our organisations are. If you are feeling post-Covidly energetic, why not come to a meeting as a guest and see what you can contribute to help women and girls, locally, nationally and internationally.
