Chideock WI is affiliated to Dorset Federation of Womens' Institutes (DFWI) 

​

Our parent body is The National Federation of Womens' Institutes (NFWI).  It was established in 1915 to ensure that women are able to take an effective part in their community, to learn together, widen their horizons, improve and develop the quality of their lives and those of their communities and together influence local, national and international affairs on issues that matter to members.  ​

 

Over the last 100 years, WI members have campaigned on an incredible range of issues, increasing public awareness and bringing about real change.  More information can be found at https://www.thewi.org.uk/campaigns/100-years-of-wi-campaigns.
