The Good Companions

The Good Companions is a club for the ‘Oldies’ - old in years, which is not the same as old in mind or thought. To bring home the point, the person running this website (i.e. me) is a member.  You can do a lot if you put your mind to a task.

The Good Companions usually meet on the first Tuesday afternoon in the month in the Memorial Hall. Talks, entertainment and coach trips are regularly organised. 

Meetings are on Tuesdays at 2.15 p.m. unless otherwise indicated
