Programme 2026 - 2027
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 2026-2027 - 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
