Seeking New Venues

We are always on the look out for new venues, with parking nearby and maybe buses, and rely on our local members to let us know what is available, as venues do not always advertise.

 Could you please help by sending me any contact details?   Even if we already have received the information this will now be updated and your help will be most appreciated.
