We will try to keep the information on this site as up-to-date as we can - in some cases there will be extra details here that we weren't able to include in the printed programme leaflet. Even so, it's better to call the event organiser beforehand rather than "just turning up" because, although it's not often, there are occasions when we have to make late changes to the programme. As you might expect, he or she will be pleased to hear you are interested in their event and can confirm details for you. If you can't get through to the event organiser, please contact one of the committee.
