About ARWI
We were formed in May 2016, so by WI standards, we are babies! Our membership has steadily grown and we currently boast sixty members and are running a short waiting list. Our ethos is to make friends, support each other, especially when times are tough and to donate to local charities. Each month, your cake donations go to a local charity to support women and children. We also collect food, clothing, toiletries, pill packets, milk bottle tops and stamps for various other causes.
These are a few of our favourite things...
Each month is different. We have taste tested Christmas food, heard about crop circles, made bunting, practised Indian Head Massage, danced, sewn, tapped and sung. Come and see what we'll get up to next!
Our favourite Jaunts & Jollies
Too many to mention them all: from The Diana Memorial, the Royal Albert Hall, Tinwood Vineyards and the Blue Sapphire Gin Distillery, how could we pick a favourite? We have many day trips in our memories and many planned for the future. Why not join us?
Our first summer social
2019 saw our first summer social. We held a village fair style get together with music, fun games, an afternoon tea, a photo booth and we even had a sweet cart!
