January meeting | all about WI resolutions
Many people, members included, don't know The WI is a campaigning organisation. 2018 marks the 100th anniversary of the 1st national-level resolution and campaign. As this month always includes individual votes about preferences on the national resolution for the year, we decided that January would be a great month to focus on this aspect of our wonderful group and have a discussion-led meeting for members new & old.Committee members led the meeting sharing about the history of campaigning in The WI, recent & ongoing campaigns, the process of submitting a resolution (based on BWI's own submission making the national shortlist for 2017), then learning about this year's shortlisted proposals before voting. We talked about how we can take action on the 2017 resolutions locally and had lots of great ideas. Look out for our actions across Balham and beyond!
