We normally meet in the Sanderstead United Reformed Church Hall, Sanderstead Hill from 2pm to 4pm on the first Wednesday of each month, but please check on the Events page as sometimes the meetings will be on Zoom if conditions dictate the necessity. You are welcome to come as a visitor and join us for a meeting. Our subscription for the year starts in April, but you may, of course join later in the year at a pro rata rate. Please email us if you would like further details or to join us at one of our meetings.

In the last year we have enjoyed .....
…. a series of very good speakers on a variety of topics, a trip to Behind the Seams, where the costumes are made for Strictly Ballroom, coffee mornings, a craft stall at our October meeting, and a very enjoyable afternoon tea on 9 August, where a significant amount was raised for our charity the South East Cancer Help Centre. Our Old bags and haberdashery stall on 10 June at the Gruffy also raised funds.
We had our AGM in November and welcome our new Committee. We had a lovely Christmas lunch at Croham Hurst Golf Club and the following week we enjoyed our Christmas Party. Many of our Small Groups also had additonal Christmas celebrations. Thank you to all who have volunteered to help at Meetings and those who organised coffee mornings and trips etc. in 2023. We look forward to lots more fun with our WI in 2024.
Our Old bags and haberdashery stall in June 2023. We will be back at the Gruffy Fair on 29 June 2024– noon onwards and hope to see you then. See our Gallery page for more photos of activities we have enjoyed in the recent past.
