Coming up in June

A walk, our monthly meeting,  and the coffee morning 

Our monthly walk: Saturday 13th June 

Where: at Clapton station (Weaver line) Time - 11.00am

A chance to discover one of east London's hidden gems.

Following the perimeter of the marshes, along the river and through the 

peaceful wooded areas.

It's a haven for wildlife and with 

any luck we might glimpse a kingfisher or two.

There are plenty of refreshment options at the end of the walk on Millfield Road 

and Lower Clapton

Some may enjoy an extension to the walk at the end to Broadway Market

Monthly meeting - Thursday 18th June

The speaker booked for this month is unable to join us so we have 

a couple of suggestions from Janet our fabulous secretary

Show and Tell

Bring with you (or photo if too big! ) something you are currently working on 

(or are particularly proud of), craft, sewing, painting, writing etc. 

What have you abandoned, never to pick up again.....

and / or 

What's the most recent book you have enjoyed, hated, thrown across the room?

There may also be a chance to try a very relaxing simple craft technique 

requiring no previous skills or just knit and natter. 

An opportunity for an evening to catch up and chat is always good fun.

Our monthly coffee and catch-up: 

When: Friday 26th June

Time:     Meet between 10.30 and 11.00am
