Groups
Groups operate on a voluntary basis, with members sharing their knowledge and learning together – new members are always welcome where space is available. Please contact the group leader to check current availability, using the links below. If a group is full, a waiting list may be formed, or it may be possible to become a 'guest member' until a 'full member' vacancy arises. When there are enough people, it is sometimes possible to form an additional group.
Non-members may attend one 'taster' session free of charge.
If a member is interested in starting a new group, please contact the Group Coordinator via the message link on the right.
