Last week: Verity Milligan Presentation

Now we are getting into the swing of meetings on Zoom we are taking advantage of the fact that we are virtual to bring speakers from further afield and the presentations outside the norm.

Last night's speaker was Verity Milligan, a woman who seems to be able to achieve the near-impossible: -  making Birmingham look attractive ;)  


She spoke very naturally and modestly taking us through a series of images and was not afraid to tell us how she would improve them and the thought processes that went into them.   A really memorable evening.

It was good to see lots of new faces and old friends joining us for this talk, everyone is welcome to our Zoom meets.
