In order to keep transport costs to a minimum we will be making up numbers with non society members; as members will have priority we are asking them to pay a deposit of £5 per person for each trip by 31st March to secure a place.
Please let Rebecca Jordan, Knob Hall, have your payments. These details and forms have been delivered to all society members.
