The ladies of Meet and Mingle experienced democracy first hand when they visited the Houses of Parliament as guests of Slough's MP Fiona Mactaggart.

They enjoyed a day out there last week on Tuesday, April 12 exploring the country's 'seat of democracy' while enjoying the London Eye and a river cruise as well.

Meet & Mingle is a voluntary, non-profit charity organisation, founded by Aksa Marshal in January 2013. The group was established for local women in the community to help build self-esteem, encourage mental, physical, emotional and social well being and lots of friendships.

On Saturday (23/4) there will be a third birthday celebration at the Copthorne Hotel, Cippenham Lane, Slough from 7pm.

Miss Mactaggart will be coming and there will be music and dancing from Bollywood.

Meet & Mingle currently has over 350 members.

It has branched out and currently has three sites at Manor Park, Wexham and Chalvey.

Tickets in advance at £15 can be obtained from Aksa Marshal on 07732 632637.
