Red Cross meet every first Tuesday of the month in the Catholic Church Hall, starting at 1pm, as previously noted, it is important we can keep the Red Cross happening, and we need your help – so if you are at all thinking about joining a club it is a good fun way to met people, get out and about and raise some money for the Red Cross.
