Monthly events

Board Games Club

We've taken on board feedback from the community, and instead of a booking-based monthly session that runs like an event, we're setting up a board game club that runs a little more like our other book clubs in store.

It's for anyone who loves board games – whether you're available to pop down to our sessions more immediately or in the future. We hope to get to know you a little better – do join us!

Tuesday 2nd December, 7pm

Tickets are £5 and includes a drink on the evening, with the cost redeemable against the book.
