This is an archive of outdated events listings. It will give you an idea about what sort of speakers we tend to invite.
We meet weekly on a Friday afternoon over a cup of tea in comfortable surroundings at the Friends Meeting House, South Street, Bridport between 2.00-4.30pm.
More often than not we have a speaker or demonstration first and finish the afternoon chatting, sharing experiences and exchanging thoughts.
People are welcome to drop in for part of the afternoon – not everyone can spare the full two and a half hours. Also, everyone is free to attend only the events they are interested in. There is no obligation or even expectation to attend each and every Friday.
In fact, the Living Tree supports members who never attend meetings at all.
