The hall is opened at about 7 p.m., and we start the meeting soon after. Guests are most welcome to attend these meetings.

After the end of restrictions relating to the Covid-19 pandemic which prevented us getting together in the Hall, the Club has continued to operate with on-line Zoom meetings on the third Wednesdays of each month. Zoom meeting invites are sent the prior evening by the Organiser and opened at 7.15 p.m. prior to a start at 7.30 p.m.

The Zoom meetings are open to any interested person who should contact the Zoom Meeting Organiser (see above) to receive a Zoom invitation.
