August is generally a quiet month for Brockenhurst WI, although activities have still taken place this month.

We started the month with the last day of The New Forest Show, which you can read about here.

We had our trip to Wilton House which you can read about here.

Rita and her team have continued to make bandages for Ukraine and are doing sterling work.

Janette and the darts team have continued to practice.

We have a very busy September and indeed rest of the year and we look forward to seeing you at our September meeting and events.
