All our Events are free and run for approximately 2 hours.
There is at least one event open to the public each month. They tend to be very popular and you will need to book a place on these. Booking is via Eventbrite, and we ask you to inform us if you book a place and cannot attend as there will be someone on our waiting list ready to step in. Thank you.
Maintenance and Conservation events, are usually held at 1pm on the third Sunday of the month but always check this page in case anything has changed. No need to book just come along and stay for refreshments afterwards. You will be most welcome.
