"W.I. Lite" - come on, who belongs to the Women's Institute? I want to join!

I saw this story and was v jealous

I'd LOVE to start a young person's branch of the WI around here - the local branch is staffed by very posh ancient ladies and frnakly, I hang around enough of those at church

Where is the gap between the NCT years and the 'old' W.I. ? I think the WI should expand the idea of a 'WI Lite' across the country.

So - who belongs to the WI? And do you just hang out with oldies or do you belong to one of the younger branches?

(Have we had this thread already? I tried to search but just got lots about Nintendos...)

The National Federation of Women?s Institutes (NFWI) is the largest women?s organisation with around 205,000 members. It plays a unique role in providing women with educational opportunities and the chance to learn new skills.
