Ros Uren (Chair)

We have just celebrated our centenary and we are now looking forward to the next 100 years!

We meet every third Thursday of the month and start at 2pm.  We finish at 4pm.  We try to book a good range of speakers and we like to put in a fundraiser and charity occasion once in a while.  Our garden parties are wonderful and the Harvest Lunch is a fabulous celebration for the Autumn.  

We would be delighted to have you as either a member or as a guest.  We always have tea and biscuits (sometimes cake if there is a birthday to celebrate).  All we ask is that our guests make a contribution to cover refreshments.  We can only offer membership to women (biological sex at birth).
