We are a very active, friendly group offering a warm welcome to new members. In addition to
our monthly meetings, we offer members the opportunity to meet up at coffee mornings (hosted
by a different volunteer each month) and walking groups. We are currently setting up a book
club. We enjoy regular outings to local places of interest, local businesses, and the theatre. We
play an active role in Gislingham village life and our catering expertise is often called upon at
village events. Come along to a meeting and find out more – first visit free.
