Our Leader is Jackie Beadling
We are an interesting and diverse group of people who meet once a month to discuss a set book and often to chat about current affairs.
The group is helped along by glasses of wine or cups of coffee as we meet at the “Crow’s Nest Pub” in Seaham at 2.30pm on the first Thursday of the month.
