This year’s programme is listed below.
Lectures begin at 2:30pm at each of our two venues:
the Painswick Centre, Bisley Street, Painswick GL6 6QQ and
Box Village Hall, Box GL6 9HJ
Please note that the car parks at both venues are small and attendees may need to find a space nearby. Members are encouraged to car-share when possible. (Please be aware of the risks from moving cars in the car parks, and also the slip and fall risks when the surfaces are wet or icy).
Health and Safety at Lectures: The majority of risks arising from our use of the Halls can be minimised by adopting the usual common-sense approach, however, a few are highlighted on the Health and Safety page linked opposite.
In the unlikely event of a Fire, members and guests are asked to assemble in the car park at each venue and to have their names checked off the register before leaving. Council Officers will take responsibility for directing, assisting, checking the building and calling the Emergency Services.
