24th January 2025 - An Evening with Mike Newbold - My Life as an Extra. Mike will take us from amateur dramatics, appearing at Nottingham Playhouse and The Theatre Royal to 18 years as a TV extra. He’ll discuss the rules regulations and pay as an extra and reveal tales. He’ll also share some tales about interesting and strange people he has met on the way. So take your seats, settle down, and prepare to be entertained!
28th February 2025 - An Evening with Wolds Wine Estate. A family run artisan vineyard in the village of Stanton on the Wolds. Come and enjoy hearing about the varieties of grapes they grow, how they look after the vines over the year, and about the wines they produce. There is a £10 charge for this event to cover the cost of our sampling!
