KIRKANDREWS ON EDEN & DISTRICT W.I.

The Kirkandrews on Eden WI local group belongs to the Regional Cumbria-Cumberland Federation of Women’s Institutes http://www.ccfwi.org.uk/index.html.

We are a small and very friendly group, on 8th December 2020 celebrating our 70th anniversary.

The Cumbria-Cumberland Federation offers warm friendship and the opportunity to learn together. There is a huge variety of subjects and activities on offer within your local WI or the Federation through the sub committees, whether it is astronomy, photography, creative writing, walking, cooking, craft, music and singing, art, the environment, visiting gardens and historical houses, travel or social occasions. We campaign on National issues and have been very active in our support for continuing the usage of cheques, the honey bee situation, violence against Women and many others
