Blitz Blast & Rationbook Supper @ The Blue Rooms.

Friday 13th December, you hear the air raid siren warning of an approaching bombing and so you head to The Bluerooms at the Byram Arcade where you will wait out the onslaught with light hearted merriment, dancing, food and good company.

* For one night only you'll be leaving the 21st Century behind and heading to the era of WWII.

* Fashions and uniforms from 1937 to 1945 are positively encouraged and indeed there will be a prize for the Best Dressed Female and Best Dressed Male.

* You'll be welcomed by a "Blitz Blaster" courtesy of Hoult's the Wine Merchant and you'll fill your tum with a hearty dish straight from a ration era recipe book. And finally a piece of cake from The Kiss Me Cake Bakery.

* There will be LIVE MUSIC from Jump, Jive & Wail

* Dance instruction and 1940s "disco" from The Backstep Boogie Club.

Now all for the new improved price of just £15 per person.

Call for New Members 

So you've been to a couple of meetings and enjoyed and want to do more. Or perhaps you've never been but keep hearing about all of the fun we have and want to find out for yourself.

We welcome guests at anytime of year. Just get in touch via the contact page and we'll tell you what to do next. If you want to stop being a guest and start being a member then here is the good news, between October and March you can do just that but get in quick because places are limited. 

At just £34.70 for up to 15 months (subs due every January) it really does represent terrific value and we have some terribly interesting and exciting events and activities in store.

Our ethos

Founded in October 2010, Tea & Tarts WI is one of the new brand of WI which are introducing women of all ages to traditional and not so traditional skills. One month you'll find us perfecting our needlework and the next we'll be bustin' some moves to some lowdown dirty hippity hop.

Who, where, when, what, how

We are a group of 70+ members (more and more new Tarts pop out of the woodwork every month). Every age, shape and level of exuberance is represented. So whether you are confident in new surroundings or an honest to goodness wallflower, please don't let another month go past before coming and joining us.

We have a team of lovely welcomers who will guide you through your first meeting, show you where to get a cuppa and introduce you to your new Tea & Tarts WI friends.

We meet on the first Thursday of every month at Huddersfield Town Hall. Please do check our What's On page first.

In addition to our regular Tea & Tarts monthly meeting we have many nights out, days away and afternoon get togethers. There is sure to be something to suit you. Follow us on Facebook for all the latest.
