Each
year the
Society stages
eight indoor meetings
(one a
month with a summer break). These
are currently held at two alternating venues: the Church Lounge at Oadby
Trinity Methodist Church, Harborough Road, (off the central car park)
Oadby Leicester LE2 4LA (click
here for map), and the Rothley Centre, 12 Mountsorrel Lane, Rothley,
Leicester LE7 7PR (click

The meetings feature illustrated talks by experienced ornithologists,
artists, conservationists or photographers, whilst you can also socialise
with other members and meet the committee. All meetings are free to members.
For more information, please contact John
Hague.
All meetings are held on the first Friday of the month, and start
at 7.30pm.
