We are an informal, friendly and sociable group that was originally formed in 2008 and is still going strong.
Meetings are held in St John’s Church at 7.30 pm, on the 3rd Thursday each month from September to June. Refreshments are available at the end of the meetings.
Annual Membership is just £15 for the year. However, occasional visitors are very welcome - for £3 per meeting.
