​There are over 120 WIs in Buckinghamshire with over 4500 members.

 Each one meets once a month and there's bound to be one near you! As well as the local WI meetings, there are county and national events open to all members and associates.
The WI is a democratic, social and educational charity operating throughout England and Wales.  Every WI provides monthly speakers/demonstrators  on a variety of topics decided by members.  Other gatherings, such as craft clubs, ramblers, discussion  or drama groups and choirs, are also often offered by individual WIs.   Federation events are organised throughout Buckinghamshire and appeal to anyone with interests in art and crafts, sports and leisure, drama, public and international affairs, ecology and conservation and more.

Could you serve on a sub - committee?

Bucks Federation has a number of sub -committees which are busy running a varied programme of events to appeal to members' interests.
Would you be interested in joining them?
Most meet alternate months, some at Stuart Lodge in Wycombe, some at other venues.
To find out what each one does have a look at their page on this website; check out the What's On page too for an idea of the events put on by each group.  If you think you could help please get in touch. The more help we have, the more ideas we have, the more members will benefit.  We know there are lots of really talented people out there with fantastic ideas, so don't be shy in coming forward!
