About the WI
The National Structure
The national headquarters of the WI, the National Federation of Women's Institutes, NFWI , is in London. There also is an office in Cardiff, NFWI-Wales, and a residential college in Oxfordshire, Denman College. WI Enterprises is the trading arm of the organisation and exists to raise funds and provide benefits for members. The NFWI Board of Trustees is democratically elected every two years by the members.
The Regional Structure
The 6,800 WIs are grouped together to form 70 county and island federations, each with a regional office. Together the WIs and federations make up the National Federation. Each level of the organisation is run by a committee of elected members.
Abbotsley is part of the Huntingdon and Peterborough Federation with headquarters at Walden Road, Huntingdon
Separate organisations exist in Scotland and Northern Ireland.
