Rowington Women's Institute
WE BELONG
to the Warwickshire Federation of Women's Institutes, which incorporates 117 Women's Institutes with a total membership of around 3,500.
 
WE ARE PROUD
to be a small part of the National Federation of Women's Institutes, which is the largest women’s voluntary organisation in the UK, with some 205,000 members in 6,800 Women's Institutes throughout the country.
 
OUR WI
is lively, creative, sociable and community conscious.
 
                                                          
WE BELIEVE
in encompassing modern day ideas without losing the traditions which are at the heart of the WI movement.
 
WE CARE
about our members, the local environment, the future of rural services – especially our Post Office and public transport.
 
WE SUPPORT
village events (for example, we provide the tea tent at the Annual Village Show).    
 
WE HAVE
regular speakers on wide-ranging and thought-provoking topics at our meetings.
 
 WE ENJOY
many activities – walking, croquet, cricket, line-dancing and learning craft and computer skills.
 
WE PARTICIPATE
in WI Group competitions (some members do make exceedingly good cakes).
 
 
WE GO ON OUTINGS
to places like the Lavender Fields at Snowshill.
 
WE MEET
at Rowington Village Hall at 7.30 pm on the second Tuesday of each month (except August).
 
OUR PROGRAMME
for 2008 includes “Fun with kitchen gadgets” (March); “Shakespeare” (April); “Browsing Antique Shops” (June); “Wildlife Photography” (September); a Beetle Drive (October); “Wine Tasting” (November) and the Christmas Party in December. We are also planning a Clay Day in June, a Mini Produce Show in May, local walks, an outing and possibly a theatre visit.
 
WE ARE HAPPY
to welcome guests to our meetings and WE HOPE that some may be enthused enough by our programme of events to become members.
