Programme for 2026/27

Indoor Talks

All talks start at 7:30pm. Either in the River Room, Sutton Courtenay, or on Zoom..

The River Room is next to All Saints, Sutton Courtenay. Enter from Church Street using the gate just by the George (PH). The River Room is straight ahead, to the left of the church. There is limited parking outside and a small car park a short distance away at the south end of The Green. Map and church details here.

For the River Room (Hybrid) meetings the speaker will be live in the room, and members will be sent a Zoom link so they can watch the meetings from home if they don’t wish to attend in person.

Zoom: Members and any visitors who have paid £5 into the clubs account in advance will receive a link to the Zoom presentations.
