Our groups are summarised in the lists below. (If you're looking for information about trips see Trips and Visits.)
We're always open to suggestions and are keen to set up new or additional groups when we can. So if you can't find the type of group you're looking for, or an existing group is full and there's no option to join a waiting list, contact the Groups Manager.
For general information about how our groups operate or how to join a group see About Our Groups.
Click on a group's name to find out more about the group: what it does, when and where it meets, what costs are involved, details of future meetings and how to contact the coordinator. If you're interested in a particular type of group it may be easier and faster to use the search feature at the top of the page. Or, view the groups by category rather than alphabetically.
