Monthly Meetings
Our monthly meetings are usually held upstairs in the Unthank Arms pub, opening at 7:00p.m. for a 7:30 start. On the occasions when we need a larger venue, we move to our second home at Trinity Hall on Cambridge Street.
Attendance varies, but we generally expect to see 35-40 members plus a few visitors at each meeting.
We’ve been running hybrid meetings since September, but will be returning to fully in-person meetings from April. Monthly meetings are open to our members and most are also open to pre-booked visitors.
