PROGRAMME

 

We hold public meetings every month except July and August.  These are free to members, but there is a small charge of £2 per head for non-members.

 

Meetings take place at 8.00pm on the fourth Wednesday of the month at St John’s Church Hall, Friern Barnet Lane (next to Whetstone Police Station).  There is ample parking alongside the building and a bus stop outside (routes 234, 383).
