Foskett Marr Gadsby & Head supporting Essex WI News

We continue our support of Essex WI News (EWIN) with our Foskett Marr Gadsby & Head marketing campaign.

The publication is shared with it’s members digitally and also a printed magazine is posted to it’s members.

Essex Federation covers a huge geographical area, from the more industrial south, along the beautiful coastline and into the more rural villages in the north of the county. They are one of the largest Federations with approximately 6,500 members in over 165 Institutes.

The Aim of the WI is:

To offer opportunities for all women to enjoy friendship, to learn, to widen their horizons and together to influence local, national and international affairs.

About the Women’s Institute:

The Women’s Institute started in Stoney Creek, Ontario, Canada in 1897 as a ‘self help’ group for farmer’s wives. Adelaide Hoodless’s youngest child had died from drinking contaminated milk and she was determined that it shouldn’t happen to other children. She set up the Women’s Institute with the aim of educating and supporting its members which is a tradition the WI upholds to-day. Since its inception the WI has been non-sectarian and non-party political. However, as the largest women’s organisation in the country, they are a force to be reckoned with and continually campaign for changes and improvements to the position of women and that of their families. The WI pride themselves on the fact that all members pay the same subscription and are equal in all ways.
