Little Witley WI rounded off a successful 2007 with a traditional Christmas dinner in the village hall.

Many members and especially the committee worked hard to set the scene and create a festive atmosphere.

We were treated to the wonderful singing of Margaret Peters who encouraged everyone to join in her medley of Christmas carols and songs.

WI members and villagers gathered together on a cold evening to raise money for the Worcester Breast Cancer appeal by carol singing. Thank you to everyone who supported this appeal, which raised £330.

Our first meeting in the new year was led by Trish Law and the subject was Trish's Travels. She has made several visits to New Zealand and this was an account of her latest trip. En route she stopped off at Perth, Australia, and despite the chilly weather found Perth a vibrant city and well worth the trip.

Trish's talk was fascinating as she recounted her exploits travelling in a hired car, with her sister, off the beaten track with in New Zealand's North and South islands. February 20: Little Witley annual dinner at the Manor Arms Abberley.

February 25: Two teams entering the county quiz.
