We are a friendly group of men and women meeting weekly from October through to April the following year. Ages range from 35 upwards and our evenings are quite varied.
Sometimes we have a quiz or play a game of some sort, and on other occasions we have guest speakers who give us a wide range of topics from humorous to informative or devotional, but always we finish with a cup of coffee and a chat.
During December our Tuesday evenings are spent visiting the local homes for the elderly, singing carols together, and we always celebrate Christmas in a big way!
Our main monetary support is for our ongoing commitment to the Nigeria Health Care Project that funds the work of several hospitals in Nigeria.
The Wesley Guild is open to everyone who is looking for new interests and a friendly atmosphere among people who care for each other.
Just come along any Tuesday evening to the Church Hall at 8 pm and you'll find a very warm welcome.
Programme for 2011/12
Meetings may be cancelled at short notice during the winter if snow, ice, etc, makes getting to the meeting dangerous.
