In December we hold a social meeting at which Christmas decorations, such as table garlands are made by participants.  This event is advertised widely, and is very popular. 

The club have organised trips to RHS sites for club members and visitors. 

The club has built up strong links with other local clubs. 

Two members were invited by a local gardening club, to be the experts on a question and answer session. It was so successful, that they have been invited again next year. 

One of the members is a Parish Councillor and gives advice on horticulture to the Parish Council.  This Parish Councillor set up a Community Garden, which is thriving and well used, within the community.
