Indoor Meetings Programme: 2022
Due to the ongoing Corona virus, we had to cancel meetings in April and May 2020. We had hoped to meet again this September, but sadly there are still restrictions on meetings that make this impracticable. We are all disappointed to have lost almost a whole year of meetings, indoor and outdoor In our 2021 programme our speakers are mainly local we are most grateful to our local talent which we are sure will not disappoint you. The chairs will be set out to allow 'Social Distancing' Refreshments will be served prior to the meeting and during the interval All members who have paid their subs for 2020/21 will be entitled to a free renewal for 2021/22, during which year we can only hope for a return to normality. The committee hopes that you will understand the reasons why we had to make the difficult decision to cancel meetings until September 2021. The magazine and website have continued as normal.
