What is the WI? |
The National Federation of Women's Institutes (NFWI) is the largest voluntary organisation for women in Britain, with some quarter of a million members. It plays a unique role in giving women educational opportunities and the chance to acquire new skills, take part in a wide variety of activities, and campaign on issues that matter to them and their communities.
Local Events |
* Outings, walks, and other social events to which non-members are also invited.
* Additional activities, including bridge, art, reading and craft groups.

We also have our WI stand at the village fête. Events details |
National & County Events |

Campaigns: In 2011 Bledlow put forward a resolution for improvements in the care of stroke survivors, and this is now a mandate at county level, allowing us to go forward with our campaign lobbying local councillors and MPs. Details |
