Interest Groups

Our current groups are listed below. The groups vary considerably in both type and size. Smaller groups generally meet in Members' homes, whilst larger ones use a suitable venue. Many meet on a regular basis. Others, by their nature, meet on an ad hoc basis.

If you are interested in joining any of these Interest Groups you can make contact at the monthly meetings. Alternatively contact the leader of the Study Group you are interested in, contact details are given for each group. Or email the Interest Group Coordinator Study Group Coordinator .

The joint groups with South West Herts are open to all members of Woodside.
