We are a group of 13 Women's Institutes in & near Lincoln and hold at least two open mtgs each year + Carol service, in addition to our individual WI meetings.
We had a great time learning about trace evidence, fingerprint types and evidence collection with @pulsecsi at our Autumn meeting in Reepham. Loads of questions for Jacqui, we could have spent a whole day on this! 😊🔬🕵️♀️ #forensicscience#fingerprints#iamwi
I'm trying to get a message to @OwainWynEvans without coming across as an absolute stalker! Email, insta and now twitter... Please help a sister out... There's cake and general fabulousness involved, nothing sinister, and I'd be super grateful if you'd RT 🎂🎂🎂🎉🎉🎉😊
Bees’ Needs Week is an annual event coordinated by Defra to help raise awareness of the importance of bees and other pollinators. This year’s #beesneeds is 9 – 15 July: is your WI organising an event?

We are looking for any craft, cookery or floral art related activities and news for the WI column in @craftsbeautiful magazine! These can be either from a WI or an individual member.
Please send any information and photos to [email protected]!
❄⚠ IMPORTANT NOTICE ⚠❄ Due to the rather pants weather, please check email/social media to confirm whether our meeting will go ahead tomorrow. As much as we love WI, we don't want to encourage travel if it is unsafe to do so. Stay warm and safe ladies 💚
We will soon be launching the second phase of the #WIFoodMatters campaign, focusing on food poverty.
We’re asking WIs & Federations to host food poverty debates, and to guide you we are producing a toolkit which you can sign up for here: https://t.co/MRxKLuOhOF #WIFoodPoverty
Congratulations & welcome to the 37 new WIs that opened in January, we're excited to see what these WIs have planned for their first year! If you're a new WI & would like advice on setting up social media pages, please email [email protected] as we have detailed guidance available.
Every time we wash a piece of clothing made from synthetic fibres, including polyester, nylon, or acrylic, a mini tsunami of these nano-specs of plastic – so small you can barely see them – is unleashed into the water supply. https://t.co/9QmgS4Hf0q
Dear supermarkets,
WI members are calling on you to publish your food waste statistics, across your supply chains, and in a format accessible to consumers.
Will you commit to this?

(Please RT if you believe the supermarkets should do this.)
This is such an amazing weekend - inspiring women, some of whom share their stories and pass on their skills, just brilliant! 😍 https://t.co/o6gynib9rQ
The NFWI Science & Leisure Committee’s new Photographic Competition has now started! Inspired by member’s talent and love of photography, WIs are invited to submit a collection of photographs depicting a year in their WI. For the full schedule visit My WI: https://t.co/cLS9PFFjrQ
Following an evening spent with @ManchesterWI, @EmeraldStreet Assistant Editor captures the essence of the WI in her article describing the variety of activities & community spirit that WIs offer to their members: https://t.co/j9jASul9PP #wi#inspiringwomen
It would be a crime to miss our next two author events! We have @AnnCleeves@panmacmillan on Wed 31st January and @ellygriffiths@QuercusBooks on Thursday 15th February. Tickets for both ladies are selling fast.
