 Current affairs

The Current Affairs Group meets to discuss items of local, national and international news that has interested them over the previous month.
 
Each member is encouraged to bring items of interest with them - firstly to give us the their opinion and then to open up the discussion to the rest of the group. 

These discussions are always interesting with many differing points of view. They are usually very lively and a bit unruly at times. They are, however, always good natured and non party political.
 
Past visits have included very interesting trips to the Magistrates Courts, the Council Offices and to watch the Mansfield  CCTV cameras being monitored.
 
We like to go for a Group lunch once or twice a year and these are always enjoyable occasions.
 
There is an attendance fee to cover the rent of the room. 

Last Lunch
Thursday 4th March 2010, at Forest Lodge, Edwinstowe.
