Meetings are usually held at the Comrades' Hall, Broadwindsor DT8 3QP (usually upstairs in the Lewesdon Room), on the third Thursday of each month, normally starting at 7.30pm. Members begin to arrive around 7.15, and the meeting would normally finish about 9.30. (Just occasionally, we may hold an event during the daytime at the weekend, or alter start times to suit.)
So what happens at a WI meeting? We usually start with any business that needs to be discussed, then sometimes we have a speaker before breaking for tea, coffee and biscuits or other nibbles. Other times we may have a craft evening or other activity.
