Levington WI
Levington WI successfully ‘twins’ with Dunrobin & District WI, Ontario, Canada. We enjoy our new friendships, knowledge of other cultures, sharing/exchanging ideas, programmes, information about our WI; what projects we might be working on and in general keeping a link open and keeping in touch. We also exchange gifts from time to time. It has been invaluable learning on how a Canada WI operates.
Levington WI is a group of all ages from our 20s to our 90s. A thriving, friendly and enthusiastic group.
Founded in 1961, Levington WI has around 36 members. Meetings are normally held on the 2nd Wednesday of each month at Levington Village Hall, Bridge Road, starting at 7.30pm. Visitors and new members are always welcome.
