Our next Club Meeting on Tuesday 9th September from 8-10 pm at Emmanuel Parish Centre will be an informational visit to Nudigate Brickworks Nature Reserve. Once a clay pit, this site south of Dorking has been transformed into a wildlife haven with two lakes and several ponds set amongst a diverse habitat of woodland, scrub, and grassland. Stephen Woodcock from the Surrey Wildlife Trust who manages the Reserve will be our expert guide.
August was a colourful and flower-filled month where we enjoyed both our Summer Show and Social at Fairlands Community Centre and our Members' Gardens Open Day. Some beautiful photographs from both events are on their respective pages of the 2025 Events together with the growing set of August Photographs.
See the 2025 Club Programme, the Potting Shed pages, or the Newsletter for more information on Club meetings and activities.
