Newsletters & Events

Monthly Meetings

Our main meeting is held every month at 2.30 pm in Faringdon Corn Exchange on the second Thursday of the month. Meetings begin with a warm welcome from our Chairman, Peter Hoole and any notices from the groups. The talk, from a visiting speaker then follows. After the talk there are free refreshments and a chance to talk to Group Leaders and socialise.

Non-members are welcome for a small fee of £1.50 per person.

If you would like to give a talk to our members or you have heard of a good speaker, do please contact me. I am always on the look out for new topics and interesting speakers.

We look forward to seeing you in the Corn Exchange.
