Activities for Adults

OUTLOOK: is the name of a new group that has been started at our church. We meet on the third Tuesday of each month to look at topics of concern to us as Christians and explore wider aspects of the Christian and other faiths.
We plan to have discussions based on books, studies, articles, DVDs etc. Visiting speakers will be invited and visits made to relevant places, plays, exhibitions etc. Some purely social activities will also be included. The activities of the group will be determined by its members.

Drivers:
Drivers is a social group for adults of all ages, meeting on the third Monday of each month. The programme includes speakers, an in-house meal, quiz and games evenings and a meal out in a country pub. The annual membership fee is nominal, although members may sometimes be asked for voluntary contributions to charitable causes in connection with particular speakers.

Badminton Club:  This is a non-competitive social badminton club, which runs all year round (with a few exceptions). We have a mix of ages from youth to retirement, and play socially for fun. We take existing players but also encourage anyone wishing to take up the sport to come along and have a go. We use feather shuttlecocks and will provide basic coaching of the game.
Our fees are paid on a pay-as-you-play basis at £ 2.00 for adults and £ 1.00 for youth per session.
Please be aware that there is currently a waiting list to join the badminton club.
