The Mens group was formed at the beginning of last year and have visited a number of places both locally and a little further afield .

Our inaugural meeting was at The Oakwood which included a good inexpensive breakfast

The groups second meeting was to Southend Museum to see artefacts brought up from the 'London' shipwreck in the Thames Estuary.

We have since visited several places of interest but are always looking for new places to visit so please contact John if you have any suggestions.
