2020
After safety discussions with the venue management we have unfortunateley had to change our Society re-start date. This means there will be no further meetings this year and our first meeting will hopefully in the early part of 2021, hopefully before Easter; 
but this all depends
 on the Covid situation. 


 FOR THE TIME BEING ONCE WE REOPEN THERE WILL BE NO RAFFLE, NO REFRESHMENTS AND NO MID-EVENING BREAK SO WE CAN HAVE TIME TO SANITISE THE SEATING AFTERWARDS. 

Please note the Winter Series has been 
re-scheduled to the Autumn.
