Programme for 2024-2025
Welcome back to the Section’s meetings for 2024-25. Unfortunately, it is taking longer than I expected to find speakers for all our meetings through this year but we do have a programme up until February 2025.
The meetings will all be online except for the December meeting which will be held in Swarthmore Education Centre.
All meetings start at 14.00, although the meeting will be opened about 13.45. They will all be using Zoom, but just to remind you – you do NOT need to have a zoom account to access the meeting. You can do so using your normal browser.
