We ended 2024 with one of our wonderful Christmas lunches at Thurlestone Golf Club.  Would you believe that was the 18th year we have been there?  They always make us so welcome and we have a great time. Thanks to everyone who brought a raffle prize: you are all very generous.

We start our meetings again on Thursday 9th January when Tony Wood will be coming to show his presentation on The RNLI's 200th Birthday.  In fact, the anniversary year was 2024 and he was originally due to give the talk last May but had to cancel at the last minute.  It's amazing to think that the Institution has been going since 1824 and I am sure we are in for a very interesting afternoon.

On  13th February, Ken and Hilary Hudson from Loddiswell will be coming to tell us about their 'Life of Music and Dance' which I know will be fascinating and varied.

On 13th March, Rob Skinner, Project Manager for the South Devon National Landscape will give his presentation 'Life on the Edge' which is a project which aims to restore viable populations of some of the UK’s rarest invertebrates and plants living along the South Devon coast.

Everyone is welcome to our meetings - feel free to bring a friend or two!  £3.00 per person plus £1 for a raffle ticket.  Please let us know if you have any special dietary requirements: all reasonable requests catered for!
