Nature
Leader: Jackie Brame Tel: 07703 299035
We meet at 9.45am for a 10am start on the 2nd Tuesday of the month. The idea is to look at the seasonal delights of nature. We meet at agreed locations both in Northampton and surrounding country parks to walk around ending up in a cosy café. We enjoy sharing an interest in the environment and sharing our combined knowledge whilst having a laugh or two.
