Thames Valley branch
Welcome to the Thames Valley Branch of The Western Front Association
We meet once a month on Thursdays evenings at 8.00pm. We ask for a modest donation of £4 on the door which includes covers our running costs. A bar is available for members to purchase refreshments.
Members and non-members of The Western Front Association are equally welcome.
Any new visitors are guaranteed a friendly atmosphere and a warm welcome from a group of like-minded enthusiasts.
We look forward to welcoming you to our branch meetings.
