The society meets twice monthly on Wednesday evenings from September to March/April, for talks and presentations on a wide range of subjects. We also arrange visits to theatres and places of interest together with a four-day 'mini-holiday' usually in May. The talks and presentations, fourteen in number and mostly illustrated, are given by invited speakers. The venue is:

Our 2009 MINI-HOLIDAY, from 8th to 11th May, to Derbyshire was based on the Holiday Inn, Sandiacre. From there we visited various places of interest in the area including Stoke Bruerne Canal Museum, Northamptonshire. Further pictures of the holiday can be seen by clicking on the link below.
