Vivien Lee
Trustee and Sub Committee Chairman
Our committee consists of WI Advisers, ordinary members who have chosen to take their membership further. WI Advisers are trained and appointed by NFWI to work under the direction of the Federation Board of Trustees. This is a voluntary, challenging, time consuming but very rewarding role which include forming new WIs as well as promoting existing WIs. WI Advisers have to be able to act as communicators, counsellors and mediators to ensure that members know what is available to them and to help them get value for their subscription. Training is in modular format (3 sessions) at Denman College and fairly arduous with preparation and follow-up work to be done, but the result is a thoroughly worthwhile experience. If you are interested in becoming a WI Adviser or would like further information, please contact Vivien Lee – details in the handbook or contact Federation Office – Trustee and Sub-Committee Chair
