Tonight, I went along to Molehurst Women's Club to speak to their members. This local club, based in West Molesey, is part of the National Association of Women's Clubs. They invited me to talk a little about my role as an MP (and now Minister), and also what I did before politics. We then had a lively discussion, with questions on everything from telephone monopolies to the lack of anonymity for defendants in rape trials. 

After the discussion, their Chair - Stella Nicholas (pictured) - generously gave me a cheque from the club for the Elmbridge Community Fund. I was really touched by such a kind gesture, and extremely grateful for the opportunity to chat with all the Molehurst Women's Club members.
