The 37 WIs are spread all around the island and like WI members come in all shapes and sizes, but the one thing they all have in common is the warm welcome you will receive.
Cowes WI is the newest and meets in the Community Hall at Northwood House in Cowes, on the fourth Monday of each month at 7.30pm.
Bembridge Windmill WI has launched its own website at http://bembridgewindmillwi.atspace.com/index.html
Have a look to see what they get up to.
If any other WIs have their own website please contact the federation office and we can add a link for you.

The first two WIs were both formed on the same day in May 1919 and both celebrated their 90th birthday in 2009. They were Ningwood & Shalfleet and Wootton Bridge, but unfortunately Wootton Bridge has since suspended.

The federation is very active holding Art and Craft classes in-house, getting involved in local issues and NFWI Campaigns.
