The WI has been inspiring women for over 100 years.

In 1915 they set out to give women a voice and to be a force for good in the community.

Since then, their membership and their ambitions alike have grown tremendously. Today, they are the largest women’s organisation in the UK and they pride themselves on being a trusted place for women of all generations to share experiences and learn from each other.

For some, it’s a chance to meet people and catch up with friends. For others, it’s a way to learn valuable life skills and make a difference in their communities through WI campaigns.

The WI is what you make of it

WIs come in all shapes and sizes and their members can be involved in a way that suits them. If you’re thinking of joining a local WI group then why not give the Burpham Evening WI a try.
