About us
Watton Evening WI was formed in 1990 as an addition to an afternoon meeting as we realised that many members either worked or had other commitments and could not always make an afternoon meeting. Unfortunately the afternoon membership dwindled and we as Watton Evening celebrated our 30th Birthday in 2020. Due to COVID-19 we had to delay our celebrations. However as the restrictions were lifted in August 2021, we celebrated our 30th birthday with an Afternoon Tea in the Evening with our members. Check our events page for photographs of a fun evening.
We are also part of the Wayland Group of WI's.
As our scrapbooks show we have had many fun evenings and outings. We look forward to enjoying many more and our programme for 2022 is detailed in our diary. Over the last 2 years we have held meetings over zoom which included our committee meetings and our monthly member meetings including quizzes hosted by our members. With restrictions being lifted in 2021 we resumed our meetings and it was so nice to connect in person with our friends again.
Our membership has grown steadily over the last few years with our membership reaching 50 in 2019. There is no age restriction.
Visitors are always made welcome at our meetings, come and see for yourself.
