Welcome

The Wiltshire Federation of Women's Institutes (WFWI) is a network of local Women’s Institute groups across Wiltshire. It is part of the larger national organization, the Women's Institute (WI), which promotes the interests of women and encourages involvement in community and social activities.

The Wiltshire Federation organizes various events, campaigns, and initiatives focused on improving women’s roles in society, fostering personal development, and supporting local communities. The group also advocates for environmental, social, and political causes, while offering opportunities for members to develop new skills and connect with others.

​

We now have over 3,000 members across Wiltshire, some in very rural areas whilst others are in towns.

​​​​​

The four members of the WFWI Board of Trustees are elected every two years and have overall responsibility for the Federation, WI House and all the committee work. There are four teams: Adviser Team, Campaigns Team, Events Team and Craft & Leisure Team. WI members are always welcome to volunteer to serve on one of the teams or to send in ideas for different events and activities so that new ideas can be explored.
