Selborne WI


About our WI

Selborne WI meet in the Village Hall on the first Tuesday of the month, at 7.30pm. We are a small but friendly and enthusiastic group and a very warm welcome is always extended to all visitors and new members.
We have very enjoyable meetings with interesting and informative speakers on a wide range of subjects. We have at least one outing a year chosen by our members and are often involved with a variety of other pursuits.
We actively take part in local and county events and participate at national meetings. We are always happy to arrange lifts.
We are a part of the Austen Group which comprises Selborne, Farringdon, Chawton, Four Marks and Medstead. We have two group meetings a year and a Carol Service not forgetting friendly skittles matches and quizzes.
We debate many topical issues of local and national importance and are passionate about our village community. Fun, enjoyment and friendship always remain high on our agenda.
We would love you to come along and visit us. Our very varied 2010 programme is listed below. We'd love to see you!
