    Women's Institute at 100
The British women's organisation set up to revitalise rural communities and encourage women to become more involved in producing food during WW1.
We look back at 100 years of the WI, a British organisation set up to revitalise rural communities and encourage women to become more involved in producing food during World War One. Its members have campaigned solidly for women's rights since the organisation was founded. Witness hears from Marylyn Haines-Evans a long time WI member and from the author Julie Summers.
