Members of the group include those who have studied history for many years and those whose last experience of learning history was at school! What we share is our enthusiasm and a desire to learn.
New members would be made very welcome and you certainly don’t need to be a history expert to enjoy what we do.
Please contact the coordinator if you have a query via the contact link above.
