Meetings

Where do we meet? Gotherington Village Hall

When do we meet? 4th Wednesday of every month at 7.30 p.m.

As well as listening to invited speakers – our current programme is detailed below – we catch up with news of our members and other local and national WIs. During our meetings, we have time to chat over coffee and biscuits and members who celebrate a birthday that month are served a special cake and take home a birthday posy. From time to time we have competitions, Bring and Buy stalls and always enjoy a Birthday Party in April and Christmas Party and meals in December.

Each year members can enter a ballot for a course at Denman, the WI College.

In addition to our monthly meetings members are invited to join the Art Group, Tai Chi and the lunch club, as well as other ad hoc activities, including trips and workshops.
