Defrost your vocal chords at Stokey WI's Christmas party


Come to Stokey WI's Christmas party where we'll have a singing star alongside Yuletide nibbles and tipples to help us get in the festive spirit. 

Vanessa Havell is founder of 40s-style, three-part harmony singing trio, The Marjorie Belles, described by Chris Evans as "mellifluous marvels".

Vanessa is confident she can get Stokey WI and friends singing carols in three-part harmony almost as gloriously - or at least give us a good laugh trying!

 The party is free and open to members and friends, but please book a place as space is restricted.

Eventbrite - Christmas wine, song and laughter!

November meeting: time to meet the Salmon Smoker!



Next Monday's WI meeting gives host to Ole-Martin Hansen - A.K.A. The Stokey Salmon Smoker. Not something you'd necessarily expect in Stoke Newington, but Ole runs a smokehouse just by Clissold Park, bringing his great-grandfather’s Norwegian recipe to London.


 True to 4 generations of Hansen and Lydersen craft, he insists in producing his salmon according to the long-standing smoking traditions that have made his family’s success for over 80 years.

We're looking forward to hearing Ole's story, the work he does and tasting his delicious salmon - just in time for Christmas party planning too!
