Members of Exorna Wome’s Institute had a thoroughly enjoyable and educative international get-together at their May meeting.

The special guests for the evening were representatives of the Over-50s Asian Group who meet regularly at the West Bann Centre in Coleraine.

They related their experiences of living in the Causeway area, some of them for more than 50 years. It proved a fascinating evening.
