If you don't think WI is for you, then read what Jane has to say:
"We moved to Worlingworth August Bank Holiday 2006. My girls settled easily into Stradbroke school and my husband into his new job. The village news publication advertised that the local W.I. were having a tea for residents of the village. So, gathering my courage, I went down to the Community Centre at the stated time and introduced myself. They were all very kind and welcoming, sat me down with tea and scones and introduced me around. The thing is, if I hadn't bothered I could be sat at home not knowing anyone in the village at all. As it is, I have now made many friends within both the W.I. and the village and I'm very glad I took the trouble. Come down to the W.I. at Worlingworth Community centre (1st Wednesday of each month) and say hello, see if you like them, I do!"

Diss Food Bank

The WI have been collecting food and drink for the food bank for several months. I deliver the food to Diss. I have been asked how others in the village can contribute. I'm at the Community Centre every Monday morning between 10am and 12 noon with HomeStart. Please bring your contributions there and I will deliver them. Tinned or packet items are preferable.

WI Quiz (2024)

Worlingworth & Tannington held their fundraising quiz recently. This had been the first quiz since Covid and was well attended with people coming from Framlingham, Wilby, Earl Soham, Otley and Worlingworth. The range of questions gave something for everyone and close up 'Ask The Family’ type images of everyday items plus some music ensured everyone could have a go at something.
Thanks to all who helped to make the event a success.
We raised a good amount of money which helps fund our speaker programme for the year so thank you to everyone who came along and yes, to those who asked, we will be doing the Quiz next year!
