All talks are held on Saturday evening, will usually commence at 6pm and are held in the Brown Elephant briefing room. Although most of the events are free of charge it is customary that a silver collection is made at the end of each talk for the Lasham Trust or other deserving cause of the speaker’s choosing.
Dinner will be available in the restaurant afterwards. Booking is advisable at thegoldenglider@outlook.com or 01256 384910. The bar is also available to members and visitors at all times.
