We are a sociable group of stitchers who enjoy all aspects of embroidery and stitching. We have a yearly programme of talks, demonstrations and workshops delivered by both in house members and established stitchers from outside. We operate throughout the year with the exception of January. We also try to have a stitching related outing in the summer.
MEETINGS: 1st Saturday of the month
2pm – 4pm on speaker days
10am – 4pm on workshop days
FEE: £40 per year

The Trustees meet each month to deal with the day to day management of the building and grounds. They are responsible for ensuring the building, hall policies and activities comply with current legislation. They must ensure that the finances of the hall are well managed and that it is as well prepared as possible to deal with future needs.
An annual report is published by the Chair of Trustees ahead of the AGM. Members of the public are welcome to attend the AGM and can access the report and minutes of meetings via the links below.
