Fressingfield WI are a thriving group of 30. Along with our yearly programme  of speakers we enjoy our outings one of which was a picnic on a Thames barge sailing up the Orwell. Other outings included a trip to Fullers Mill gardens Bury St Edmond’s. We love our theatre trips too, “Rough Crossing” comedy at the Southwold theatre followed by fish and chips.  Our community event Soup and Cake in aid of the Food Bank proved a popular success.   We regularly run a produce stall in the warmer months selling cakes and plants provided by our members.
