Olivers Battery WI

Smell those lovely roses at Mottisfont

We are a very friendly WI, who enjoy eleven meetings a year on the third Monday of the month, but not August. We are part of the Winchester Group of WIs and enjoy extra events organised through the Group. Not only do we enjoy our meetings, with excellent speakers, but we have a thriving book group and a knit and natter group. Most months there is a Coffee Morning  and there is a Craft Afternoon, held at St Marks Church on a Monday Afternoon, see below for dates. All these events are because they interest us, but we are always happy to arrange more to suit members’ interests.

Monthly meetings are held at  St Peter’s Primary School, Olivers Battery Road North, SO22 4JB at 7.45pm.
