North Baddesley W.I.

North Baddesley W.I. was formed in 1946 and has moved location several times within the local area. the latest of these moves was to the Village Hall, Botley Road in April 2007.

Meetings are held on the 2nd Tuesday of the month 1.45 for a 2pm start

In addition to the monthly meeting there are various small group activities.

The Craft Group, which can cover most aspects in the vast field of creative work.

The Reading group where a set book is read by all and then discussed. It is hoped to start a Play Reading Group in the near future.

The Darts Players meet in a local hostelry and even some games end without resorting to 'double one'.

Once a month the Walking Group venture into the surrounding countryside for short walks, always ending with lunch at a convenient pub.

A Fun Quiz is held once a month and a Quiz Sheet is sold at monthly meetings to raise funds.

Our latest ventures are afternoons at the cinema, swimming once a week, trips to London every so often and the starting up of a Luncheon Club based at Eastleigh Tech.

We are always ready to start new things and welcome anyone who reads this page to join us.
