Milton Malsor & Collingtree WI

11/03/2026

Our March WI meeting is 7.30pm tomorrow at Milton Malsor Village Hall — and the outlook for our group is feeling much brighter than it did a month or two ago. This week is our Annual Meeting, where we’ll be looking back on our centenary year and setting our focus for 2026. We’re also delighted to be welcoming a guest from WI House, who will be sharing more about the wider WI with us. If you’re curious about joining or would simply like to see what we’re about, you’d be very welcome to come along.

March 8th is International Women’s Day (IWD) a global movement powered by collective effort. For all who care about gender equality, or simply want to Celebrate women's achievement or raise awareness about discrimination IWD encourages taking action to forge gender parity. This year theme is ‘give to gain’ and encourages supporting charities that promote equality. What will you do to celebrate? Please share your ideas here.

🌸 Can You Help Keep Our WI Alive? 🌸

As Collingtree & Milton Malsor WI enters the second half of its centenary year, we’re at a crossroads.

In March, I—Jacqui Jones - will be stepping down as President. Without someone to take the reins, or join our committee, we may face the heartbreaking decision to close our doors.

💔 Membership has dropped
💸 Costs are rising
🌱 And we need fresh energy to carry us forward

But this isn’t just about numbers. It’s about friendship, laughter, and the spirit of a group that’s been part of village life for generations.

If you—or someone you know—could spare a few hours a month to help lead or support our WI, please reach out. Whether you’re a long-time member or new to the idea, your time and enthusiasm could make all the difference.

💬 Message us here or speak to any current member.

Let’s keep this wonderful tradition going—for our community, and for the future.

Your village WI needs you.

A lovely September evening spent with Jenny Timms and Mike Caddy from Vitreus Art - a working stained-glass studio and gallery near Potterspury. Mike’s fascinating talk took us through the history of stained glass, from ancient techniques to Tiffany’s timeless legacy. Then Jenny guided us through a hands-on glass cutting session—such a treat!

A huge thank you to Jenny and Mike for sharing their passion and expertise.

Interested in joining us? Come along—we’d love to welcome you.

Honoured to meet on such a special day, we spent this months evening last week, celebrating 80 years since VE Day by making Dry Clay Poppy Bee Waterers and eating some lovely VE cupcakes. Some excellent creations made, that are now ready for a lick of paint or two before being used in our gardens 🥰🐝🌸
