North Yorkshire East Federation of Women's Institutes
Introduction
The North Yorkshire East Federation of Women's Institutes (NYE WF WI) is a regional branch of the National Federation of Women's Institutes (NFWI). Formed in 1983, it resulted from the division of the Yorkshire Federation into six smaller federations due to its increasing size.
History and Purpose
The Women's Institute (WI) was introduced in Britain in 1915, during World War I, to engage women in crafts and food production. Over time, its activities expanded to include education and voluntary work. The North Yorkshire East Federation plays a key role in linking local WIs with the national body, ensuring adherence to Charity Law and guidelines from the Charity Commission[1][3].
Governance
The NYE WF WI is governed by a Board of Trustees elected by its membership every two years. This board is supported by part-time staff and is responsible for overseeing the federation's activities[1].
Activities and Memberships
As of recent data, the North Yorkshire East Federation has around 2,500 members across 89 WIs. It offers a variety of educational events throughout the county, in line with the WI's aim to provide opportunities for women's education[1].
Charity Details
- Charity Number: 1185965
- Objective: The main objective of the NYE WF WI is to support and connect local Women's Institutes, facilitate educational activities, and enhance community involvement.
Community Impact
The WI has been influential in British society, particularly in rural areas, since its inception. Its contributions range from supporting local communities to participating in national and international projects[3][5]. The NYE WF WI continues this legacy by engaging women in diverse activities that promote personal development and community service[4].
