The Coronavirus has disrupted our normal weekly meetings and we have moved to Zoom meetings so that all members can remain safe at home and still enjoy a talk and fellowship.
It is our intention to hold two meetings per month on the 1st and 3rd Monday of every month. The programme is still being prepared and further talks will be added to the list as below:
