| Whether you have recently moved to the country or have lived here all your life perhaps you are looking for new interests and friends.
Please think of joining one of the 109 WIs we have in Cumbria-Cumberland and be part of an organisation that can help you to extend your horizons. Being a member of the WI can help you make a difference to the life you lead, to your community, and to the world you live in.
We have a monthly newsletter which updates our members on all the activities available. Our dedicated website is going live soon, and that will give up to the minute information about everything that is happening in our Federation.
The Cumbria-Cumberland Federation offers warm friendship and the opportunity to learn together. There is such a variety of subjects and activities on offer within your local WI or the Federation whether it be astronomy, photography, creative writing, walking, cooking, craft, music and singing, art, the environment, visiting gardens and historical houses, travel or social occasions. We campaign on national issues such as excess packaging, chemicals and health, farmgate milk prices, Post Office closures and healthy eating.
Our headquarters at WI House in Carlisle is open to members and visitors on Mondays from 1.00pm until 4.00pm.
Tuesday to Thursday from 10.00am until 4.00pm.
Everyone is made welcome so please contact our friendly staff and they will be happy yo put you in touch with your local WI.
Joining the WI is the start of a journey of discovery as you find out just what membership has to offer you. Why not start that journey with us?
I look forward to meeting you soon.
