SI The Fylde Diary
Meetings of SI Fylde are held on the first and third Tuesdays of each month at 7/8 St Georges Road, St Annes on Sea, Lancashire. The first meeting is a speaker meeting and the second is a business meeting although these can sometimes vary. We are very lucky to have our own premises where we can hold meetings and where we have kitchen facilities. Commencement time 7.30 pm and usually finishing between 8.30 and 9.00 pm.
Guests are welcome to meetings and we have a meal at our meeting room for those who wish to partake prior to our business meetings - commencing 6.00 pm and costing approximately £6 for three courses. Funds to SI projects.
Following the meetings, coffee and tea and biscuits are served. On special event days we have buffets and wine.
