NYW Zoom Along

Introduction

Over the last few months everyone has been deprived of the opportunity to meet up with WI friends or take part in courses and events.

NYWFWI trustees have now decided the time has come for us to provide for our members an opportunity to have fun and acquire knowledge, skills and entertainment and possibly provide an encouragement for new members about what the WI has to offer.

The cost per course will be £5.00 per member, there are no additional software costs but you will require an internet enabled device ie a PC, iPad, tablet, mobile phone.
