Our meetings are on the 4th Thursday of the month at 2pm at the Rushden Bowls Club. New members are always welcome. We charge £2 entry fee to pay for the hire of the room we use. All activities cost an additional amount to cover the cost of materials. Members are welcome to bring unwanted craft items to sell on our Sales Table. Please contact Diana Turner, the Group Leader, via the contact page for further details.
