Groups

For GENERAL enquiries concerning Interest Groups contact the Interest Groups Co-ordinator, Tim Carter.

At present we have over 40 Interest Groups as listed below. Each group has a Convener whose function is to act as administrator or leader in its various activities and meetings. For information about a Specific Group, including how to contact the Convener, click on the GROUP NAME in the BOXED LIST at the BOTTOM of this page.

Groups meet in members homes or at other venues. Largely because of space constraints, there is a limit to the number of members that each group can accommodate. To learn if space is available contact the group Convener. If there is sufficient demand and if a member offers her or himself as Convener a second group can be initiated.

In addition, we also occasionally offer short courses of up to 10 sessions led or tutored by a member or associate. For example, in the last couple of years we have run 3 separate Film Studies courses. If you could offer a course covering some aspect of your expertise or knowledge, please contact the Chairman.

NEW GROUPS

For the Autumn Term, starting 5th September 2019, we are pleased to announce two new Groups that are starting up:

• Jazz and Blues Appreciation, Convenor: Phil Hart
• Chess, Convenor: Jeremy Fraser,

See the relevant Group page for more details on these groups.

Watch out for short presentations by these Convenors at the first Thursday meeting of Term (5th September) on the aims of these Groups together with their times, dates and venues for the meetings.

Other New Groups
We are always on the lookout for possibilities to start new groups. At the New Members Coffee Morning earlier this year there was some interest expressed in 3 other new groups - Antiques, Intermediate French and Pilates.
If you feel you would be interested in acting as Convenor for any of these potential new groups, please email the Interest Groups Co-ordinator, Tim Carter, contact him at 020 8579 3729 or speak to him at a Thursday meeting.

Do you have the interests, skills and experience to help form any other new Interest Groups? All of our Group Conveners are volunteers, motivated by commitment to a particular area of activity and learning. Will you volunteer to form a new group? If so, please email the Interest Groups Co-ordinator, Tim Carter, contact him at 020 8579 3729 or speak to him at a Thursday meeting.
