Welcome to MARSTON MAGNA WI

Our Institute was formed in November 1925 

The National Federation of WI’s marked 100 years since its inception during 2015 and as a result enjoyed considerable press coverage.  This has encouraged many more women to join the organisation and will safeguard it for many years to come.

Six Marston Magna members undertook to mark the centenary and our own 90th birthday by researching, writing and compiling a book entitled, Marston Magna ‘Our Village’ in the 20th Century.

Marston Magna is a small village and the WI membership also draws on the surrounding villages of Rimpton, Mudford, Queen Camel and Sandford Orcas. The membership currently stands at twenty six and meets on the second Monday of the month in Marston Magna Village Hall. Meetings take place at 7pm. This is subject to Bank Holidays. In July we have an outing and in December we have a Christmas meal, so we do not meet at the Village Hall during those two months.
