More WIs Support ACWW & the ‘Women Walk the World’ Campaign
#acww
Women Walking Worldwide!
ACWW sponsored walks take place worldwide each year and WI members are always very supportive of this worthy cause. ACWW offers support, friendship and practical help to improve the lives of women and their families, empowering communities around the world.
Clogher Valley Area
Members from WIs in the Clogher Valley Area enjoyed a lovely walk in Knockmany Forest, Augher, raising £250 for ACWW. Afterwards, the ladies rewarded themselves with a light lunch in the Courthouse Cafe, Clogher.

Drumbeg WI
Members of Drumbeg WI held their sponsored walk in Sir Thomas and Lady Dixon Park. The ladies also enjoyed a welcome break at The Stables Coffee Shop!

Newtownbreda WI
Instead of a sponsored walk, the Newtownbreda ladies held a special coffee morning at Rockmount Golf Club in aid of ACWW funds. Tea/coffee and an assortment of freshly made scones, topped with jam and cream, was the order of the day – irresistible! Former Rowallane Area Executive Member Agnes Black from Boardmills WI, who previously served as International Sub-Committee Chairman, had kindly come along to give a presentation on the work of ACWW. Agnes also left a few ‘Rural Woman in Action’ folders to pass around the members. It was a lovely morning and, with donations, the Newtownbreda ladies raised £264 – well done!

Quoile Area
On a lovely, warm Saturday morning, a few ladies (and dogs) from the Quoile Area, representing Annalong, Downpatrick, Seaforde, Slievenaman and Spa, got together for their sponsored to raise funds for ACWW.
