Welcome to details about our 2025/26 Speaker programme.
We use a number of different venues so always check the details. Our usual talks are held at the renovated Chapel in Wisbech General Cemetery. However, for speaker events where we expect a large turnout we have started using Wisbech Rugby club. We also have the occasional meeting at the Secret Garden, so…..always check the detail on the poster and always book. Speakers are being booked all the time so if one month doesn’t have a speaker, then they haven’t yet been booked. We don’t have a speaker in December, and it’s our AGM in April. The speaker season starts in September and the last talk is usually in March.
