Norham WI

Norham WI members are looking forward to meeting indoors again on Thursday 8th July - government guidelines permitting. This will be the first time since March 2020 and it is going to be an emotional moment seeing everyone together again.

Norham WI would like to send their condolences to WI member Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on the death of her husband His Royal Highness The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. May he Rest in Peace.

Happy Easter everyone from Norham WI

Wishing all of our ladies and their families a very Happy Easter.

This link takes you to a WI competition to design a T-shirt for the ‘Not in my Name’ campaign. The closing date is 15th October and entries are to be forwarded to NFWI-Wales. thewi.org.uk/wi-in-wales/new…

It is hard to believe that it is one year ago since the U.K. was first placed into lockdown. On this day of national reflection we remember all those affected by this dreadful virus, give thanks for our wonderful NHS & look forward to the future with hope in our hearts.

Happy #InternationalWomensDay to all of our WI women. Throughout this pandemic our ladies have continued to show their strength and have supported not only our own members but also our wonderful NHS by making scrub bags etc. Well done ladies!

Just received a handmade card with teabag from our President @margaretjeffre1. She has made one of these for each of our members - such a lovely gesture and a great way of keeping in touch.

Just received the latest edition of Northumberland Federation’s newsletter. Great to catch up on what is happing across the Federation and even better to see our WI featured with the story of the Travelling Case.

Happy Valentine’s Day to all of our lovely ladies and their families wherever you may live. Hopefully, it won’t be long until we can hug each other again. Until that day stay safe and remember to tell those close to you that you love them❤️

Some photos from earlier in the pandemic when our President, Margaret Jeffrey and committee members prepared gift bags for all members. Really appreciated by everyone

Even though we are unable to meet face-to-face at the moment at less than £1 per week our annual subscription fee still represents excellent value.

Although we are unable to travel at the moment if you register with virtualtrips.io there is no need to miss out on seeing different parts of the world. Tours are free although you can leave a tip if you wish.

It is a huge shame that this year we can’t hold our annual Soup & Sandwich Event. The event is open to non-members & is always eagerly anticipated & very well attended. Admission is by donation only & the money raised goes to local charities. Photos are from February 2020.

Such an inspiration and his memory will live on in the hearts of many. Our thoughts are with his family at this very sad time. Rest in Peace, Captain Sir Tom.

Just received the latest newsletter from Northumberland Federation. Good to see so much going on around the area despite the restrictions. Well done to one of the ladies from our neighbouring Cornhill WI on her 100 club draw win.
