Local Marple Bridge WI is back as Covid restrictions are lifted
Do you know, there has never been a better time to join Ludworth & Mellor WI.
This year you can join Ludworth & Mellor WI for £22.40 which is almost half the usual fee of £44 and works out at only £1.86 a month. Less than the price of a cup of coffee!
As things stand at the moment, we are planning to hold our first post-Covid meeting on July 1st and Cheryl from Stockport Gin will be joining us in our celebrations. She will be telling us how she and her husband Paul turned their dreams into reality and Stockport Gin was born! We may have to sample some gin too.
And there’s more … the reduction in membership fee will not mean a reduction in the quality of our ongoing monthly meetings. The July meeting will be the start of what promises to be an exceptional programme. The committee responsible for organising this year’s speakers and events is working hard to make it a really special year and we have ear marked extra funding for this. When the time is right and members feel comfortable with going further afield, we will be happy to support that too. We’ve always tried to give our members value for money but this year we will be offering a double bonus, after what has been a challenging 12 months for everyone.
Our meetings are held at our Covid-safe Hall on Lower Fold on the first Thursday of each month. It’s 2pm for a 2.15 start with a bit of WI business followed by our speaker and time for refreshments and socialising.
New members are always welcome - so come along and get involved. You can just turn up on the day or if you would like more information or a chat beforehand you can contact us at www.ludworthandmellorwi or phone 07899958356
As well as our monthly meetings and other WI activities at the hall, your annual membership also gives you access to events and activities offered by the National and Cheshire Federations of Women’s Institutes, which includes access to: My WI (the WI member-only website), Denman At Home (an on-line resource offering a range of courses and activities from £5) and WI Life magazine, packed full of articles, ideas for crafting, up-dates on the WI campaigns and much more. See www.thewi.org.uk for a full list of member benefits
Are you already a member of a local WI? If so, you might like to consider becoming a dual member of Ludworth & Mellor WI as it would not involve any further cost this year and would give you the chance to supplement your usual WI meetings with a daytime group as well.
