Groups & Group Leaders

We are always looking for more Group Leaders, either to run a New Group for an interest that we do not currently have.
Or, to start an Additional Group, to ease the waiting lists for the Groups that are full.

You will never be expected to do it single-handedly, there will always be someone there to give a guiding hand and support at all times.

Interest groups normally meet in the home of the leader or a group member and a (suggested) 50p is payable for refreshments.

Additional costs may be payable when groups meet in a hall or if other fees are required.

Also, if you are interested in joining a group, or have any questions about any Group, please email the Groups Co-Ordinator , who will liaise with the Group Leader of your interest, who will then contact you.

Things to Remember for ALL Group members.
