Our events list is provisional and has changed due to the current coronavirus lockdown. This is what we planned!!!
Members receive a monthly email reminding them of forthcoming events and around two weeks before each event, an email is sent around for volunteers and attendees.
All events, unless otherwise indicated, take place in Church House, Abbotskerswell, TQ12 5NZ. 'Pop-up' events will be marketed to the community as a whole, inviting folks to attend as guests. Guests can attend two events per year without being members. See this link for more information.
