​

We are a society of some 120 members and we hold meetings on average every two weeks, usually the 1st and 3rd Thursdays of the Month. These alternate between garden lectures and flower arranging. The flower arrangers’ evenings also alternate between members' practical evenings and demonstrations by NAFAS and member demonstrators, with a special Christmas demonstration held in November.   We are proud to belong to NAFAS and celebrate our 63rd Anniversary this year.  If you are looking for a Flower Arranging group where you can enjoy the informality and friendliness of a group of enthusiastic people who love flowers, then do pay us a visit. Having the opportunity to take part in inspiring workshops, or sit back and enjoy fabulous floral demonstrations and be inspired to work with flowers in a creative way is what we do best.  There is something for everyone to enjoy !
