Welcome to the Devon and Cornwall branch.
We meet on the last Friday in the month starting at 7.30 pm unless otherwise stated.
ANNOUNCEMENT
We are in the process of suspending our March and April meetings as the majority of our branch are over retirement age. This will be reviewed in April to see if the suspension needs to be extended. Hopefully all concerned will be notified by the end of this week.
