Welcome

Welcome to Women’s Institute St Helens (WISH)

About W.I.S.H.

W.I. St. Helens was formed in January 2012 and is a group of busy, creative and vibrant women wanting to bring something brilliant to St Helens.

We hold a monthly meeting where we are joined by inspirational speakers and guests. There are many workshops and sub-groups planned for the group, where members can learn new skills and crafts enjoying a social gathering at the same time.  There will always be something new to try and members can be as actively involved as they wish.

The group is open to any women aged 18-100+ and no experience is necessary. You don’t have to be a craft guru or a whizz with a sewing kit – just willing to have a go.

Feel free to come with a friend or just bring yourself – we look after anyone who comes along on their own – we are friends you just haven’t met yet!

You can come as a visitor for two visits without joining. We ask for a voluntary donation of £3 per meeting from visitors towards the speaker and running costs.
