BE INFORMED

Our speaker meetings

There are subjects to interest everyone ranging from The Mills of Nidderdale and The Railway of Scar House through to Grouse Moors around Middlesmoor and My Life in Music at Batley Variety Club! One of the joys is coming along to all of the meetings and being surprised to discover new interests. The meetings are regularly attended by upwards of 60 people – we’d be delighted if you joined us.
