  • The Group now meets in ST LUKES HALL, WILLASTON at 14.00 on the 2nd Monday of the month. (Occasionally it could be the 1st or 3rd Monday, depending on Term Start Dates - but these changes are identified on the Programme)
  • We look at topics of interest, which affect the way we live, mainly from the scientific/technical point of view. Invited speakers from outside organisations will normally present the topic, although occasionally one of our own group will present a talk. Visits to local organisations may also be arranged.
