To wonder what happens at W.I. meetings?

Just that really. A local one is starting up again next week. Very tempted to go along. What general things can I expect? Thanks

Thank you everyone. I'm going to go to my local one next week. The lady that told me about it says the age range is around 30-80 so that's me!

No prayers, no singing Jerusalem!

Thank you SturminsterNewton

No hint of religion at ours.

They don't all do prayers? I went to two that were local to me before I moved and both had a religious feel that wasn't for me. I freely admit, it put me off totally and hadn't considered attending meetings at more groups.

Not in the slightest, in fact WIs are supposed to be non political and unaffiliated to any religion so this really surprises me!

Some meet in church halls purely because those type of venues tend to be cheap to hire but the group shouldn’t be religious in any way.

Most don’t sing Jerusalem either, ours never has, not saying it’s wrong for those groups who do but it’s definitely less common these days.
