Monthly Lectures

Lecture Meetings
The lectures are held monthly, on the second Wednesday of the month, in The Constable Hall, East Bergholt, CO7 6TP at 2.00 pm for 2.15 p.m. and are the catalyst to bring all the members together both to learn and to socialise. Questions are usually invited at the end of the lecture. Lectures aka Talks are free to attend - you've already paid for them in your membership fee.

We particularly welcome new members and those who have not been to these talks before. Non members are most welcome to join us for the lecture in return for a donation of £4.00. These were the speakers in 2022 and the dates for future talks are below.
