All our exciting events this year will be delivered via Zoom. You can read our full calendar below, which may have additions throughout the year. You’ll also find the schedule and updates on our Facebook page and Instagram account.
All Zoom links for events are notified to members via our Chair’s email updates. Details of how to become a member can be found on our Memberships page, so sign up and join in!
