Co Production evening
Our committee would very much like this club to be led by the members, so we need to hear what you want! We will gather your thoughts by breaking into groups for brainstorming, discussions, reminiscing and adding a touch of 'blue sky thinking'. Notes will be taken so we can act on the membership's wishes over the next year. So please do come along to make your voice heard! As usual, tea and coffee will be on offer, we won't know if the bar is open until the night, so best to be prepared and BYO if you'd like something cooler.
