Our Groups

Our weekly groups are listed below. Some of our library-based groups have returned to their weekly meetings in 'real life', and we are excited to have been able to launch a new library group at Ashby, but we continue to offer 'virtual' groups, using Zoom, so that you can experience shared reading from the comfort of your own home. Please contact us using the details at the bottom of the page if you'd like to know more about any of these groups or join one.
