GOSPORT INTEREST GROUPS
MANY GROUPS ARE NOW MEETING
- Leaders have carried out Risk Assessments
- Leaders tell members how they have made the venue and activity safe
- Members are asked to carry out a Personal Risk Assessment to consider if it is safe to attend
- Some groups are still meeting on line
All our current groups are listed below - click on a subject and you will be taken to the page.
Please contact the group leader if you are interested in joining a group.
Most groups meet at least once a month, usually on a weekday morning or afternoon with a few weekend and evening groups. Some groups meet in members' homes and others in meeting rooms around the Gosport area. At the bottom of this page there is an overview of when all meetings take place.
Whatever your interest, we hope you will find it here but if not, we are always open to suggestions for expanding our range of groups. You can contact the Group Leader Coordinator (using the bluebird link above) to talk about your ideas. You may find it useful to download the New Group Proposal Form.

Mobility and Access
Please contact the Group Leader who can advise on specific requirements for a member to safely attend a particular group. Some groups, for example Extra Mile Walkers and Day Trips, do require a certain level of mobility. Also, accessibility cannot be guaranteed for any group meeting in a member’s home.
However, if there is anything that prevents YOU from attending a particular group or meeting please let us know as there may be a solution! Go to the Contacts page to send an email or look in the News Update to find details of the current committee members.
