Tysoe Women's Institute

We meet on the first Wednesday of each month, enjoying a social session with a glass of wine. A great way to meet new people in a friendly and relaxing environment. 

We offer a wide varied program, we have had enjoyed Guide Dogs for the Blind, The Warmington Hoard, Myton Hospice, Behind the scenes at Waitrose, History of Hornton Stone Quarry, Gardeners question time, to name a few.

We have tried belly dancing, up cycling, remodelling clothes with the help of Lara a young designer.

This year we have visited Packwood House, Blenheim Palace Flower show, Upton House.  We held a vintage tea party in Tysoe Tea Rooms donning our best frocks and hats.

We held a very successful  and wine evening on the hottest day of the year, showcasing local talent and services, the village hall was bedecked by bunting made by us, and a good time was had by all.

We hold craft sessions on Wednesday afternoons 2.30 – 4.30. So far we have up cycled jam jars into tea lights holders, 'cake in a jar', sweetie jars, patchwork quilts for prostate cancer. We are now working on patchwork items for our Christmas shopping evening in December.

Our committee led by our president Jacqui Franklin, (many of you will know Jacqui from Tysoe Post Office) continually strive to make Tysoe W.I. a welcoming, interesting and creative group. You do not have to be a member to attend, anyone can come along to any of our events and meetings.
