Welcome to Speen WI
Speen WI meets on the first Thursday of every month in Speen Village Hall at 7.30pm.
The WI is the largest women’s organisation in England and Wales with over 200,000 members. Each WI is unique and aims to offer a variety of events for its members.
At our monthly meetings we usually have a speaker but there is always time for a social chat as well as hearing an update on all current WI activities.
