Shown below are details of the latest groups either being proposed or which have just started running:
Please also see the page with information on how to start a new group here.
Social History Group
A proposed new group is looking for people with an interest in Social History. How people lived and how their lives have changed over the last hundred years.
Members can use their own family history and photographs. We would work as a group documenting changes in our own lives, from a social perspective and those of our grandparents and great grandparents.
THIS IS NOT A FAMILY HISTORY GROUP, BUT OUR SOCIAL HISTORY. Where people lived. The homes they lived in. Their occupations and working conditions. Entertainment. These are just a few examples.
If interested contact via email.
Handbells Group
Our handbells group has been running for quite a few years but is actively looking for new members to join them – see post on main page or contact via email.
Movement/Dance Group
A group aimed at creating different kinds of movement or dance, or moving to music of any kind. We could use our past or current ability to enjoy movement/dance, and perhaps have an ambition to either perform or reach out to others, possibly taking this into the community in schools or care homes. As a group we can decide what type of movement/dance we would like to do and this can be varied.
The group has started meeting but welcomes any interested who should contact Hugh Morton – with a view to joining their meetings.
Table Tennis Wednesdays
This group is for players with experience of playing table tennis and has now started running. Each session on a Wednesday morning from 11.15 a.m. to 13.15 p.m. will give you opportunities to have fun by playing competitive games of singles and doubles. If you are interested in joining this group, please email your details and the group leader will contact you.
