WHERE IS MY LOCAL WI?
Welcome to the HCFWI
181 WIs, 7000+ Members & Endless Activities!
Welcome to Hampshire Federation of Women’s Institutes. Formed in 1918 our federation currently has 181 WIs and 7000+ members. Each WI is unique in style, size and character and each has its own personality and programme for its members. Based in villages, towns and cities there is bound to be one near you, if not, we can help you form one. Apart from monthly meetings with a speaker or demonstration, many WIs have an extra wide range of activities including book clubs, theatre trips, walking, darts, craft, lunch and Mah Jong groups.
Empowering Women Through Education, Friendship & Advocacy
The WI is a democratic, social and educational charity and gives members the opportunity to build new skills, make new friends and be inspired. We encourage members to take part in a wide variety of activities and to campaign on issues that matter to them and their Communities. WIs meet once a month.
WI Resolutions & Campaigns
Dental Health Matters
The NFWI Public Affairs Department has developed a WI campaign to take action on the dental health crisis both locally and nationally. There are lots of opportunities for members to get involved.
