This group usually meets on the first Friday of each month, however this year we will be trialling occasional visits at weekends in order to visit some gardens which only open on specific days as agreed with the National Garden Scheme.
Anyone interested in joining the group can sign up for a visit at the U3A monthly meetings to arrange care sharing or contact the group via the Chairperson.
