Our Woodley group started in 1970. We enjoy informal discussions on a wide range of subjects, quizzes, occasional speakers and also going out to enjoy an activity or visit a place of interest.

Woodley group has thirteen members, and we meet in each others houses every two weeks on a Friday morning at 10:00. We serve refreshments during our meeting and after our planned topic there is always time for a chat.

Our programme runs from the beginning of September to the end of July and it is planned by everyone at the end of every March, July, and December, for the following three/four months. We are a lively group and there are always plenty of suggestions to fill our Programmes and make them varied and interesting. During August we have a break from the programme but still meet up Friday mornings in each others homes and gardens if it’s nice weather for coffee and a natter!

On occasions we have a joint meeting with another local group. This usually involves going out to do an activity which is great fun and very social. In November we always take part in the NWR national yearly Telephone Treasure Trail (TTT) quiz. Most of the groups in the country take part and we get our questions/answers via a telephone. Great fun!!

As well as our Local Organiser Sue we have Deidre as our Treasurer and Lynn as Publicity Organiser.  Lynn posts our activities on NWR social media.  We also have an active WhatsApp group.
