Welcome to our WI - we are located in the lovely village of Frampton Cotterell just north of Bristol and our membership is a broad church. Welcome to all!
Our #BritishFoodFortnight recipe of the week is Eccles Cake - named after the English town of Eccles, these delicious flat pastries also go by the name of squashed fly cakes due to their packed filling of currants: https://t.co/pSWDE5ewOz
Today beaches littered with plastic is an all too common sight & the WI continues to campaign on plastic pollution. Our #EndPlasticSoup campaign was launched in 2017 to tackle the issue of microplastic fibres, released from synthetic clothing when washed #100YearsWICampaigns 2/2
In 1971, Leigh WI in @surreyfedwi proposed a resolution calling for research ‘into the production of disintegrating plastic packaging materials’ due to the increasing danger to livestock, other animals and the spoiling of beaches and the countryside 1/2
It's really great to hear that all major supermarkets have signed up to a roadmap dedicated to a 50% reduction in food waste by 2030, across the supply chain #FoodMatters https://t.co/659Dpgz5Dn
