HISTORY
The purpose of this group will be to explore History in the wider context; but complementary to the work of the Dawlish Local History Group.
Normally meetings will be held at 1, Kestrel Way, Dawlish, EX7 0FY on the third Thursday of each month, from 2 to 4 PM.
Members take it in turn to present a topic of their own choice and we range far and wide in our interests. Suffragettes, Shipwrecks, Slavery have been addressed. The Great Western Railway, The History of Postcards and All Our Yesterdays have been three other topics. The list goes on. We also re-visited The Festival of Britain. Discussion during and after the presentation is always lively and fun. There is no obligation to do a presentation. There are enough of us who enjoy do it, to keep us going
It is up to members of the group, and U3A members who wish to join the group to suggest topics of interest, or places to visit; and all suggestions will be welcomed.
New members are welcome, but numbers are limited, so please get in contact first.
