WELCOME TO SILVERDALE WI

Logo of NFWI: The WI Inspiring Women

Silverdale WI, in rural North West Lancashire, has about 75 members and welcomes women of all ages.  We have a regular monthly meeting (usually first Thursday of the month, 7 for 7.30pm in the Gaskell Memorial Hall), generally with an outside speaker, and lots of other activities both regular (walking, dining out, Rummikub, floral art group, book group, coffee, drinks) and occasional (theatre trips, climbing wall, history walks, craft events, ten-pin bowling, watersports, etc).  Do come and join us!

We are delighted to announce that our WI life is heading back towards "normal". We resumed monthly meetings in August, and our walking group, Rummikub evenings, floral art sessions, dining club and book club are all active. We had a superb Christmas lunch at Storrs Hall hotel on Windermere and are looking forward to 2022, subject to whatever rules and guidance are in force.
