traffic lights on Dryden Road (Left after the Snooker Hall) and follow the road round taking the first left again after the
fire station, parking is in either street adjacent to the church.

first left after the fire station, parking as above.
Durham Road is well served by all buses from the region and stop outside the church.
IMPORTANT NEWS!
Our 2020 meetings will now be held on a Wednesday night instead of a Thursday. this was unavoidable as the church needed the Thursday evenings for its own activities in 2020
We will post the dates shortly
Please Note!!
The Clubhouse has had some security issues which means we have to lock the inner door at 7.00pm. If you arrive late please ring the bell
Apology for the disruption to our meetings timetable but due to government restrictions and guidelines meetings are cancelled until further notice. The government has said that decisions on lifting or partial lifting the current restriction can hopefully be made in May/June we may be able to give more definitive details on our shows and meetings at this time, in the meantime please keep well and look after yourselves.
Congratulations to the Lancs & Cheshire Carnation Society on winning not just a Gold Medal but also the Trophy for the Best Carnation display at the Southport Flower Show, well done to you all.
Also many congratulations to Trevor Hogg on winning the BNCS Silver Medal Card for his vase of five Heracles, one of the best vases of Heracles that I have seen for a long time.

Digital Newsletter
We did not get as many replies for this request as I had hoped, by agreeing to this it does not mean you can't have a hard copy we will still print enough for all members. You will still be able to pick one up at one of the meetings after it is issued.
cheers
Dennis
