Kirk and Green Hammerton WI
At our January meeting Sam Blacker and Steve Ross gave a very interesting & informative talk with slides about their journey on the Lady Annes Way walk.
This is a 100 mile walk from Skipton to Perith following the route Lady Anne Clifford took when visiting her various castles etc. A very entertaining evening.
Our next meeting is on Tuesday 11th February at Kirk Hammerton village hall starting at 7.30pm. It is a Cookery demonstration by Wholemeal Café. Cooking using food that would have gone to landfill. This is an open meeting so all visitors welcome £4.
On the 10th March our Speaker will be Janet Dixon and will be an Otago class with balance and vitality. The meeting will be held at Kirk Hammerton village hall.

Our Poem
If you’ve time, come cast an eye
over Kirk & Green Hammerton WI
There’s visits. trips & days out galore
Competitions, anniversaries and events by the score
So take a trip with us on days rainy & sunny
to events and attractions both serious & funny
If you’re not a member then do come along
and please don’t be put off by our song
Jerusalem’s our tradition, we sing it each time
some good, some ‘not so’ – it turns out just fine
Not just Jam & Jerusalem as some folk would think
Nor women with no clothes on, hid by a sink
But interesting talks and hands on too
and the hand of friendship – held out to you.
