    • Would you like a new WI in Gayton ?

      It is an exciting time to join the WI and as it is some time since there was a WI in Gayton, we’d like to find out if you’d like to be part of a new WI in the village.

      The WI is open to all women over 18 years of age and offers a wide range of activities from learning new skills to campaigning on issues which matter to our members. In recent years we have tackled issues such as Climate Change, Modern Slavery, Autism and ADHD in women and girls, and many more.

      WIs have monthly meetings and also form interest groups with topics such as crafts, walking and even eating out. Whatever appeals to your members.

      If you’d like to come along with existing friends or to meet new people and make new friendships, please let us know. If there is enough interest we’ll have an introductory meeting to tell you more.
