Little
Weighton -Yorkshire Country Women's Association
The Yorkshire Countrywomen’s
Association was formed in 1983 to further the interests
of Countrywomen throughout the whole of the original (pre
1974) geographical county of Yorkshire.
It is rural in principle and its
aims are to further the skills, knowledge and social activities
of its members and to preserve the heritage of Yorkshire.
It is run by members for members, is non-sectarian and
non-party-political.
The Association is administered
by a Central Committee, meeting monthly at County headquarters,
and comprising twelve elected members – four from each
of the Yorkshire Ridings – plus three co-opted members
– one from each of the Ridings.
The Yorkshire Ridings – North,
East and West, each have their own administrative committee
upon which serve the Central Committee members from that
Riding plus an agreed number of invited members. Each
Riding Committee organizes activities for its own members,
and the Central Committee administers the whole Association
and organizes county-wide activities, events, competitions
etc.
