We hold lectures every month (usually on the second Monday of the month) from September through to May.  

Members can bring guests - a small charge is made for non-members.

Recent lectures have been - “Fifteen fascinating facts about your town” by our president, Tony Mitchell,  “The Great American Songbook” presented and performed by Roger Browne. “Don’t Shoot the Messenger” by Frank Vigon, “The Greatest Knight in Christendom” by Graham Kemp and “It’s a funny way to make a living” by Melissa Sinden.
