Becoming a member gives the right to join any of the Interest Groups that have vacancies.
Some Interest Groups meet in rented halls, some in members' homes and some are 'out and about'. Expenses are kept to a minimum.
Click on any of the group names below and you will be taken to a page with a brief outline of the group and contact details. These pages also show Risk Assessments, useful for potential members to assess any personal risks, perhaps due to physical impediment for example.
All members are invited to join any groups which interest them. However, as numbers may be limited, please check in advance with the group leader.
SUGGESTIONS FOR NEW INTEREST GROUPS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME. If you have ideas, please contact New Groups Co-ordinator
PLEASE NOTE THAT SOME GROUPS TAKE A SUMMER BREAK, TYPICALLY AUGUST. PLEASE CHECK WITH INDIVIDUAL GROUPS
