Adeline has been a SUKA member for a very long time! She has been on the Ex-Co in different roles under various Presidents as Secretary and more recently, as SUKA’s membership increased, she has enjoyed looking after members, particularly keeping in touch with the older members, especially those who do not have internet access. She also helps to organise events and activities for the members, and making them feel at home. The older members will remember her husband Tony who used to help and participate at events where we had to do our own catering! Those were the days! It’s interesting to see the changes over the years. She is delighted to stay on the Ex-Co again!!
