WI Advisers

Training and information sessions on all aspects of committee work, officers duties and WI finances are organised. They may also attend some Annual Meetings and Resolution Meetings as necessary.
All Advisers are available with help and advice on WI matters. Contact details can be found in the Federation Yearbook or contact the Federation Office via the Contact Us page.
