| From our federation headquarters, based in new offices in Guildford, we help and advise the WIs throughout the federation
Our WIs hold monthly meetings with speakers and demonstrations and are always happy to welcome new members. Some cater for the younger members, some for lively older people and some for a mixture of both.
If you are thinking of joining please contact the office when you will be put in touch with a WI Adviser to help you find the one in your area which suits you best. Our new Federation Chairman is Elizabeth Fisher (pictured above) and she has sent the following message:
"I have been a member of WI since 1964. I was a member of Woodmansterne Evening until 2000, when my husband, Robert, and I moved to South Godstone. I have held various positions on WI committees, been Group Convener in both areas and currently still head the sub-committee organising the Surrey Federation marquee at the Edenbridge and Oxted Show. I have three children and four grandchildren. I have nothing but admiration for the friendship from member to member and WI to WI and for the overall work of the WI movement.
I believe it is a good idea for all the Trustees to get to know members and individual WI activities."
Elizabeth Fisher
Federation Chairman
