GROUP MEETINGS
Members and visitors are welcome at any of our group meetings and details of current groups can be obtained by contacting the Membership Secretary. The meetings are held at different locations within a group area. The groups allow exchange of ideas and information, as well as being enjoyable social occasions. New groups are in the process of being formed to enable all members to attend a local group, if they so wish.
