2020 Events Programme

We will be updating the programme regularly as the changing situation with Covid-19 unfolds.  Our talks this year are unlikely to go back to being held in person at St Mary’s Church Hall in Stoke d’Abernon (details below) but we are now holding virtual meetings by Zoom where participants are sent an invite by email to join.

For more details of each event click through the calendar to the left or on the dates below.  In the calendar you also have the option to add to your digital calendar as a reminder.
