Group coordinators can be contacted from the Interest Groups pages
Can You Help? Please contact our Chair
We now have just two groups in need of new coordinators: Discussion Group & Music Group
A heartfelt thank you to Paul Buttery and Steve Hurd, who previously led these groups with dedication and enthusiasm. They’re now enjoying a well-earned break, and we’re incredibly grateful for their contributions.
Volunteers Make It All Possible
Our Interest and Activity Groups thrive thanks to the generosity of our volunteers. If you’re able to lend a hand—even occasionally—please consider stepping up. Your involvement truly makes a difference.
Got an Idea for a New Group?
We’re always eager to expand our offerings to reflect the diverse passions of our members. Whether it’s a hobby, skill, or area of expertise, we’ll support you in launching a new group and promoting it to the community. Sharing what you love can be deeply rewarding.
New Coordinators receive full support and guidance - you won't be alone! So, please get in touch with our Chair to express your interest or ask any questions. We’d love to hear from you.
