Details
The Women's Institute (WI) was formed in 1915 to revitalise rural communities and encourage women to
become more involved in producing food during the First World War.Since then the organisation's aims have
broadened and the WI is now the largest voluntary women's organisation in the UK.
The WI celebrated its centenary in 2015 and currently has more than 200,000 members.
Inspiring women - then and now
In 1915 we set out to give women a voice and to be a force for good in the community. Since then, our
membership and our ambitions alike have grown tremendously. Today, we are the largest women's
organisation in the UK and we pride ourselves on being a trusted place for women of all generations to share
experiences and learn from each other./about-us
