At present we hold an Annual Flower Show in July, one or two coach outings per year and a Christmas Lunch in December.

Last summer we visited Waterperry Gardens near Oxford. Founded by Beatrix Havergal more than seventy years ago as a School of Horticulture for Ladies, the gardens at Waterperry have evolved into an oasis of calm and beauty in the heart of the Oxfordshire countryside.

The first coach trip this year will be on Saturday June 11th to the famous Hopley’s Plants Nursery in Much Hadham, Herts.

This years Summer Flower Show will be held at the Hendon Baptist Church - First Ave & Finchley Lane London NW4 at 2pm on Saturday July 16th.
