Customer Reviews

Our lively-minded members are interested in everything and talk about anything! Read some of their reviews here.

As a member of the marvellous Deepings NWR group and a regular participator in the regional and national events – I wholeheartedly recommend this organisation for other women. I have found lasting friendships and had experiences, conversations and found new interests. We are lively minded women who enjoy coming together to discuss as well as eat, read, Zoom, walk and talk.

Julie Berry

NWR has been and still is a great source of friendship and support. The local meetings are a great opportunity to meet like minded women and get those ‘little grey cells’ working. With a wide range of subjects covered and walks and speakers included in the modest membership subscription it’s great value for money. The area, regional and national day conferences are a great chance to travel a little further from home and meet even more friends.

Jill Lucas

I was invited to a group meeting – and I was hooked – such a welcome from everyone. I enjoy the outings, quiz nights, local group meetings, meetings with other groups, and regional and national conferences.

Janet Lyons

Without NWR emails, Zoom and garden meetings my life would have been very lonely during lockdowns.

Sheila Warren

NWR saved my life. In a new town, with two small children, joining NWR was like having a new family. I am not sure what I would have done without NWR.

National Women’s Register is an organisation for all women.

Formed in 1960, NWR is a registered charity operating throughout the UK and beyond. We are a social organisation and our style is informal and relaxed. Local groups and online meetings offer conversation, friendship and fun for all women, everywhere. There really is something for everyone at NWR!
