Who We Are…………
Yardley Gobion WI has recently celebrated its 80th anniversary and anticipates making it to our centenary celebration!
As a very welcoming and friendly group we are far more than “Jam & Jerusalem”, much more “Community and Social Activity” orientated!
We are a group of women ranging from 30’s to 80’s and meet once a month at the local village hall on the 2nd Thursday of the month at 7:30pm to listen to lively and informative speakers about various interesting topics, refreshments included and a chance to catch up for a good old chat! We also have many recreational activities and you can become involved to a lesser or greater extent as suits your personal situation.
New members are very much welcome so if you want to come along and feel part of a great team you can contact Rebekah Clarke on 01908 748986 or e-mail me at rebekah.clarke@bt.com.
See our calendar of upcoming events for further information.
