Talks programme
 

We host a series of monthly talks which take place in The Pavilion at Beaminster’s Memorial Playing Fields. These are open to the general public and are free, although donations to cover costs are welcome. Speakers from ‘green’ organisations across West Dorset have inspired and engaged us. More information on dates and topics for the 2024-2025 Autumn to Spring season are here.

​

Access to the Memorial Pavilion car park is at 3 Hogshill Street DT8 3AE (What3words: jokers.fish.abstracts)
