ACTIVITY TASTER SESSIONS
Ashford Lounge runs every Wednesday 10:30 - 12:00 at the South
School on Jemmett Road. We run a series of activity taster
sessions so you can see what sort of activities there are available
out there. If a taster session is popular we will then set up a
regular weekly group for that activity, so even if you are not sure
about something, come along to see if you like it. The current
programme is opposite.
