Programme 2025 - 2026
We generally meet at 7.45 for 8pm on Tuesday evenings at West Malling Village Hall (there are a few exceptions, when we don't).
This is the Club programme for 2025-2026 - we will continue to have a mix of Hall and Zoom events, allowing us to watch Presentations from Speakers who live outside the Kent area. For this season we will be meeting in the Hall to watch Zooms together, and to socialise during the tea break
Please follow and "Like" our Facebook page to see last-minute events added to the programme.
Programme page updated 10/01/2026 to add a Street Photography day on 29/03/2026.
Addresses of other clubs' venues for Competition evenings will be sent out to members..
If you're using a mobile phone to look at this page, it will look better in LANDSCAPE orientation and show all the columns.
