The members of the Women’s Club welcomed Jo morris on Wednesday 17th January.

Jo worked in Japan for a time after she left university and she gave a fascinating talk on Japanese Culture and Folklore.

She talked about religious festivals and customs, teaching members how to bow in the accepted fashion. She brought various artefacts for the group to look at, and three members were taught how to wear kimonos.
