Formed in 1920, LFWI has over 8000 members across 168 WIs.  

Postponed Events

LFWI have taken the difficult decision to postpone all our events up to the end of September 2020.  However, we will be running our Centenary events in 2021 and will keep you informed when we have confirmed dates.  We will still be celebrating in style.  It will be our Centenary, plus one!  Please note that the 2020 County Show Schedule, 'Lancashire Love It' will also be carried over to 2021.
