MEMBERSHIP

Join the WI

Kennington WI meets on the second Monday evening of each month with a varied programme of activities, entertainment and speakers throughout the year. Our membership is healthy and ladies enjoy access to more than just our monthly meetings. We have a variety of special interest groups for members to enjoy throughout the week, as well as regular trips out and other events.

Meetings start at 7pm in our Hall at 228 Faversham Road, Kennington, and new members are always welcome. Our visitor’s hostess will be on hand to welcome all newcomers, as we fully appreciate that joining a new group can be a daunting experience! We will meet visitors and help them settle into our meeting, show them the ropes and introduce them to other members.

New members will be given a welcome and information letter to help them become fully fledged members of Kennington WI.

A reasonably priced membership fee is charged for each subscription year. This is payable each April or will be pro-rata for those joining part way through the year. Guests are encouraged to visit our WI with the prospect of joining in the future. Three test visits (for £1 a time) are offered to see if our WI is really for you. Test visits can be used to try out a special interest group too.

Kennington WI is a member of the East Kent Federation of Women’s Institutes, more details of which can be found at this link. More information about The WI can be found at www.thewi.org.uk
