NOTE SOME TALKS ARE ON MONDAYS
We have held meetings with
a varied set of talks in Liskeard for many years. These are now becoming
unsustainable, with very few members attending. In January this year, for
example, the speaker, our Programme Secretary and Zoom operator all
travelled from the Newquay and Truro areas — and only one TS Member was
present! If one or more Members who live locally to Liskeard would volunteer
to take on the responsibility for running these
meetngs, then the Society can look to continue
them after this Summer. Liskeard sessions are face to face only; KEM
sessions are face to face and Zoom.
Please contact the Chairman, Brian Jones, if you would like to
discuss helping with the Liskeard meetings.
