Glapthorn Women’s Institute
STILL JAMMING
Here in Glapthorn our Women’s Institute draws members from a number of villages and Oundle. We are a very traditional WI, however we try to be forward thinking too. We have an age range of 30 to 90 with our members coming from all walks of life. The WI is an educational and campaigning organisation but predominantly offering friendship and laughter. This is certainly true of our Institute!
