TRY SOMETHING NEW

The Try Something New group gives members the opportunity to participate in a variety of activities suggested by the group.  These range from Boardgames to Wing Walking. Cost is determined by the activity.  

In our first year we have tried Abseiling, Archery, Badger Watching, Crazy Golf, Curling, Escape Rooms, Exercising, Forest Bathing, Glass Art, Kayaking, Narrow Boating, Pickleball Rifle Shooting & Yoga. Our aim for the coming year is to average 2 activities a month run by group members.
Although not “New” we also arranged an excellent well attended social lunch at Rocca and are planning to do this again in the coming year.
