About Us:

We currently have 41 members.  We have tended the railway garden on Lazonby Station for several years as a community project and will continue to do so.

We have a Stepping Out Walking Group which meets fortnightly, we average 3 to 4 miles per walk enjoying a cup of tea at the end.  A small group go swimming every Friday.  We enter and enjoy the Pairs and Team Darts, also the Bowling matches.  Grace Sinton holds a Knit and Natter in her home once a month in the winter; we knit blankets or vests for children at home and overseas.  This year, as it is Her Majesty the Queen's Diamond Jubilee, Lazonby WI are hosting an over 60's tea party for residents of Lazonby.
