Sue Williams
When: Fortnightly on Wednesday mornings 11:00 am-12:50 pm
The group meets fortnightly at the Town Hall (11:00 - 12:50) starting 1st Wednesday of each term, with an outing the following week
Venue: Various

A friendly group interested in exploring the local area. Town Hall planning meetings alternate with visits to places of interest.

Members take turns to plan, arrange and present all aspects of a trip. Dates, venues, distances and times are negotiated and added to our schedule of outings.

We’ve visited historical buildings and sites, various organisations including commercial, charitable and creative, museums, churches, cathedrals and gardens to name a few. Most are within 15 miles of Wimborne, requiring transport. Talks and guided tours are often involved. Visits may involve walking distances, inclines, stairs and standing for periods. Optional refreshments or lunch might be arranged or members can make own arrangements.
