We don't take ourselves too seriously. We encourage healthy debate and a questioning attitude. All sorts of subjects are considered - and the half time tea break with a quick chat is a MUST.

Forthcoming events:

Wednesday 9th October: Three separate topics in one session!

The Martyred Village of Oradour. A Holocaust denier and the Killing Fields of Cambodia.

Presenter Susan Lunt gives a poignant and insightful narrative of the tiny village of Oradour sur Glane in Vichy France which was destroyed by the Nazis just before D-Day.

This is followed after the break by Elwyn who takes a look at an infamous Holocaust denier David Irving and then an unusual account of the Killing Fields of Cambodia which witness a compelling act of redemption.

Much food for thought and debate.
