We are a friendly and sociable group who meet once a month. Our programme is varied alternating light hearted evenings with more serious topics and debates.
We regularly organise events outside our meetings, which include an annual evening walk followed by a meal in a pub (with partners included), quizzing, visits to gardens and local places of interest, theatre and cinema.
