EVENTS run for members include coach trips and social outings. Our trips and outings are open to all members with charges depending on costs.
SPEAKER MEETINGS are usually held monthly on the LAST MONDAY of the month at Exning Road Club starting at 2.30pm and are available for all members, and prospective members. (Please look out for date changes when there is a bank holiday in the month.)
Our speakers at the monthly meetings are carefully chosen to provide interesting and stimulating talks on a wide variety of interests and topics. We welcome any feedback on the speaker or the meeting in general. After the formal presentation there is always the opportunity to talk to the speaker individually and to chat with other members over a cup of tea or coffee.
See our current programme below.
