Back To School In Beckworth
International Women’s Day Tomorrow
Hello sisters, please join us on the morrow for International Women’s Day. Down the tools of oppression, free yourselves from the yoke of forced labour, and come together to empower all womanhood against the tyranny of penis-waving power mongers. At midday tomorrow join us online as we set off on a virtual march to the online scout hut where, at around 1pm, we will hear encouraging speeches from many prominent international female guest speakers. We’ve even got some strong women’s voices from overseas, hopefully including Oprah Winfrey‘s (real) sister Winny and our hypothetical sister formally known as Jordan, Kate Winslett. It’s down to us to make this a powerful women-only event not to be missed, so log on early. Yours Sylvie Stoke. Chair Lady. Beckworth WI

Double Celebration In Beckworth, Infection Rates Drop & It’s World Book Day
Vaccine & reading news news just in… Good news at last after a very bleak 12 months. Beckworth’s local hospital trust has just announced via TikTok that locally new Covid infections rate have probably dropped by at least 13% in the last four weeks and hospital admissions by a similar amount in the last week or so… The announcement was made by head of A&E Dr Raj Mombai who had initially dressed as Dr Jekyll in celebration of World Book day, and then reappeared to show himself giving vaccines to the over 60s whilst dressed as Mr Hyde. Well done to Dr Raj and all the NHS staff (especially those who wore fancy dress today). Christine Batley. Deputy Chief Covid 19 Correspondent.
