Group News
We are unsure what will be happening in Autumn 21 although we hope for some face to face meetings. At present we anticipate outdoor Groups (e.g. Walking and Cycling ) will be able to meet once Government Guidelines allow. All other meetings will be online.
Information about new groups forming can be included here to attract new group members
Group List
All the Online Groups are shown below, listed at the beginning of all the groups and prefaced with a hashtag. There is also a Virtual Groups Programme on the right side of this page.
The only way to enrol for a group is by contacting the group leader in advance
Clicking on a group's name in the table below will take you to their web page. Clicking on the Group Leaders name in their web page will enable you to send a message. Some leaders lead more than one group so please make sure you include the group's name in your message. Groups are alphabetical but go left right left right etc.
Groups will be shaded with a dark grey background when full. Even if a group is full, you can ask the leader to add you to their waiting list.
If you would like to start a new group please contact the Groups Coordinator
Please scroll to the bottom of the page to see an overview of our groups by day.
