Audience at a general meeting

Each year we organise three or four outings, usually coach trips, to places of interest.

Recent visits have been to the RHS Malvern Spring Festival, Little Moreton Hall and the Anderton Boat Lift, Temple Newsam Hall in Leeds, and Wroxeter Roman City and Shrewsbury.

Our Events team works hard to keep costs to a minimum and to ensure an enjoyable day out for all who attend.
