The Tuesday Club was started in 1976 for residents of Weedon and Hardwick to provide entertaining talks and activities in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere for anyone who was interested.

Over the years we have attracted and welcomed additional members from other villages. We have covered a multitude of topics, gone out on fascinating visits and been entertained by many and various talented people.

We meet in Weedon Old Schoolroom usually at 8 pm on the second Tuesday of the month.  Activities are advertised in The Parish Magazine & Village Newsletter and here on this website.

The annual subscription is just £20 or £5 per meeting for non-members. At every meeting there is a raffle (50p per ticket) and tea/coffee and delicious biscuits are served after the talk (£1).

We are always delighted to welcome new members. For further information, please feel free to contact Judy Nagele on 01296 641278.

Or just come along and give it a try!
