We're a busy, friendly WI branch that has fun, learns new things, raises money and awareness for good causes, and works to make our community even better.
Glad to see that the WI has moved to using recycled paper for its packaging for the WI Life magazine instead of the compostable packaging. Packaging now in the recycle bin and time to sit and read the magazine. @WILifemagazine #recycling#recyclable#savetheplanet#lovewi#WI

Alongside @Possible and 13 other environmental organisations, the WI has signed a letter calling on the Government to urgently act to increase the UK’s supply of onshore wind energy, and increase the UK’s clean energy supply. 1/

There are just a few days left to have your say on our joint submission with @OvarianCancerUK to the 10-Year Cancer Plan! Let us know what’s important to you by completing our short survey: https://t.co/tds3C5DrMd
With nearly 80% of the human blood samples tested containing microplastic particles, the UK Government needs to take urgent action on microplastic pollution. @CommonSeas@APPGPlastics (2/2)
