Pett WI: On Friday May 15 Pett WI is holding its Resolution Meeting. May is the month for voting for the Annual Resolutions, for which the WI is well known. Each year WI members put forward issues as ‘resolutions’ that they want to see the national body campaign on. The process ensures that every WI member has the opportunity to set the direction of the NFWI campaigns and policy, from the grassroots up. This year’s resolution concerns long-term care. There will also be a Bring & Buy sale.

Pett WI meets on the third Friday of every month at Pett Village Hall at 2:30pm and new members are always welcome.
