Caroline - I started out as a lawyer and then became a full time mum. Over the years, I often thought about joining the WI but something always seemed to get in the way. Then, five years ago I decided to go for it and I turned up unannounced at a monthly meeting. I was made very welcome, and, as soon as I heard "Jerusalem", I was hooked! I was keen to get stuck in and now find myself Vice-President, leader of the Handicrafts group and Secretary to the Pennine Group.
I also belong to a group of textile artists and, although I love to knit, crochet and tat, my baking is terrible and I have never made jam!
