We are very excited & honoured to announce a new special guest to our Annual Meeting. The brilliant broadcaster & journalist Victoria Derbyshire will host our on-stage interview with Mel B on the topic of violence against women (& all things Spice Girls).

We couldn’t be more…

We are planning a launch of a a new WI in Haverfordwest - everyone is welcome to come along to a public meeting on Monday 13th May, 7-9pm. Free entry and a hot drink & biscuits, too. A very warm welcome is extended to every lady - please bring your friends, with you, too.

Really looking forward to unveiling our 16th Purple Plaque tomorrow in Rhyl. Dorothy Miles was a truly remarkable woman: a sign language poet and performer whose achievements deserve to be known in the hearing world (she's already very well known in the deaf community)

It was a real privilege to do a talk about my lived experience of ADHD today at Theatr Brycheiniog for Women's Institute ❤️
I hope that speaking openly about my diagnosis will help someone on their own journey and my tips/advice will aid those struggling to cope.
Sharing is caring 🫂

I was delighted to speak at today’s NFWI-Wales conference in Theatr Brycheiniog
