At each meeting we have a talk or a demonstration followed by social time which might include a quiz, cheese and wine or a workshop. We try to cover throughout the year a variety of interests with our choice of speakers. Our annual programme also includes events such as coffee mornings, a summer outing, a garden party and a Christmas lunch.
Members of our Institute also organise a walking group, an art group, a craft group, a lunch group and a monthly Sunday coffee club. There are also trips to the theatre and to live screenings
