Resolutions 2022
Final resolution for 2022 National Annual Meeting
Norfolk’s Federation Resolutions Coordinator is a member of this committee. She advises WIs who wish to submit a resolution and guides members through the procedures. Every year resolutions are submitted to the National WI for consideration and after a shortlisting meeting in the autumn attended by representatives from all Federations, a list of usually 6 resolutions is published and members discuss these and select their favourite. After more discussion and the National Annual Meeting, one or 2 become WI mandates and we can then act on them. Normally we hold 2 Resolutions Information Meetings every year to discuss both current resolutions and ideas for future ones!
