Downham Market & District

Events

Monthly Meetings

Our Open Monthly Meeting is held at Downham Market Town Hall (from October 2021 until March 2022 meetings were held at Denver Village Hall because the Town Hall was required for delivering Covid vaccinations).

Meetings are held on the second Monday of each month, except in August. Bank Holidays can cause a meeting to be held on the Tuesday.

Doors open at 1:45pm and free refreshments are served soon after, until approximately 2:15pm.

Members are free

Visitors are £2 but they *MUST* join after 2 free visits. This is due to u3a rules and our insurance not covering them or us - they are no longer classed as a visitor after 2 visits.
