Forthcoming events 


All meetings will be on ‘Zoom’ for the foreseeable future. As meetings are being held via zoom, and the club does not incur the cost of hiring the hall, the committee have decided to reduce the membership fee from September to £5.00 until the new 'term' beginning January 2021. After this time, the fee will be reviewed.The club has been fortunate in attracting new members recently, some of whom are only able to attend club meeting because meetings, at this time, are 'virtual' on-line meetings. New members are of course, most welcome, but the committee have decided that we should distinguish between members who would normally attend weekly meetings and those who attend, purey because our meetings are on-line. The purpose of this is to retain the local and intimate nature of our club.
