Location: All of our meetings are at Booker Hall except where stated in the diary entry.

Speakers: Where we have Guest speakers, we will charge non-members a £5 door fee to help cover costs which would otherwise fall on our members themselves.

* Workshops: Our meetings are workshop based unless otherwise noted. The meetings may have a seasonal theme for guidance, but feel free to bring along any tree that needs help or development.
