About our WI

Otterbourne WI is a very friendly WI with approximately 85 members, and meets at 2pm on the first Thursday of each month in Otterbourne Village Hall, Cranbourne Drive.
Apart from the monthly meetings we organise coach outings and activities such as a monthly walk, skittles evenings and an annual harvest lunch.
Our craft group meets on most Thursdays when there is no main meeting to have a chat whilst pursuing craft-related hobbies. There are occasional tuition sessions encompassing such topics as Dorset buttons, Somerset quilting and tea bag folding.
We warmly welcome potential new members at our meetings.
